In the published article, there was an error in Figure 3B as published. The heading for columns 3 of Figure 3B in the published article was incorrectly listed as “C. glabrata.” The correct heading for columns 3 of Figure 3B is “C. tropicalis.” The correct Figure 3 appears below.
FIGURE 3
FIGURE 3. Antifungal effects of CHGX water-extract on azole-resistant strains of C. albicans, and other clinical fungal species. Cells of azole-resistant strains (A) or clinical strains (B) of C. albicans (P37005), C. dubliniensis (D173), C. tropicalis (JX1002), C. auris (BJCA001) were initially cultured in liquid YPD medium at logarithmic phase, and were then harvested, washed, and re-suspended in liquid Lee’s glucose medium for a time-kill kinetics assay. Fungal cells (2 × 105 cells/ml) were treated with 20 mg/ml GHGX water-extract for 0 h and 4 h at 30°C in Lee’s glucose medium, and the percentage of viable cells was determined using plating assays. Three biological repeats were performed, and the values are presented as mean ± SD. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to compare differences between 0 and 4 h as indicated; *, p < 0.05.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
