Abstract

Correction for ‘Microencapsulation of probiotics in hydrogel particles: enhancing Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris LM0230 viability using calcium alginate beads’ by Timothy W. Yeung et al., Food Funct., 2016, 7, 1797–1804.


In section 2.1 of this article, ‘Bacteria propagation and general growth conditions’, it is erroneously reported that Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris LM0230 were routinely propagated at 30 °C. The correct temperature is 37 °C.

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