A corrigendum on
Scent releasing silicone septa: a versatile method for bioassays with volatiles

by Huber FK and Schiestl FP (2022). Front. Ecol. Evol. 10:958982. doi: 10.3389/fevo.2022.958982

In the published article, there was an error in the unit used for soaking concentration: we wrote “mg ml−1” where we meant “µg ml−1”. The text has been updated in the following locations.

Materials and methods, paragraph 1:

For soaking septa, each compound was prepared in four concentrations: 1, 10, 100, and 1,000 mg ml−1, in dichloromethane (highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) grade) as solvent.

has been updated to read:

For soaking septa, each compound was prepared in four concentrations: 1, 10, 100, and 1,000 µg ml−1, in dichloromethane (highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) grade) as solvent.

Results, paragraph 1:

For example, for benzaldehyde, coefficients of variation in scent emission across time points were 0.31, 0.08, 0.10, and 0.16 for soaking concentrations 1, 10, 100, and 1,000 mg ml−1, respectively (Supplementary Table S2).

The same error occurred in Figure 2. The corrected figure and its caption appear below.

Figure 2 Volatile emission rate from silicone septa for benzaldehyde. Five trials were done for each soaking concentration and time points after drying.

The same error occurred in Supplementary Tables S1, S2, S3, S4. The corrected tables are now published with the original article.

The authors apologize for these errors and state that they do not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
