Abstract

Correction for ‘Biofunctionalized pectin hydrogels as 3D cellular microenvironments’ by Sara C. Neves et al., J. Mater. Chem. B, 2015, 3, 2096–2108.


The authors regret that the different values of the RCa-GDL ratios presented throughout the manuscript (including ESI) should be corrected as follows:

R Ca-GDL = 0.5 should be RCa-GDL = 1

R Ca-GDL = 0.25 should be RCa-GDL = 0.5

R Ca-GDL = 0.125 should be RCa-GDL = 0.25

This mistake resulted from the internal nomenclature that the authors used for the experiments that unfortunately was not corrected when inserted in the manuscript.

The authors note that all the calculations and assays performed with the RCa-GDL ratios reported in the manuscript were obtained using the correct values of RCa-GDL = 1/0.5/0.25, and therefore no data or subsequent conclusions were affected.

The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused.

 

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
