Abstract
Correction for ‘Titanium dioxide/graphene oxide blending into polyethersulfone hollow fiber membranes improves biocompatibility and middle molecular weight separation for bioartificial kidney and hemodialysis applications’ by Nidhi Pandey et al., J. Mater. Chem. B, 2025, 13, 9392–9406, https://doi.org/10.1039/D5TB00229J.
The authors regret the omission of ref. 9 from the figure captions of Fig. 3 and 4 in the originally published article. The correct versions of the figure captions are shown herein.

| Fig. 1 (a)–(f) FEGSEM images of PES (P), TiO2/GO (TG(0.5/1.5), TG(1/1), TG(1.5/0.5)), 2% TiO2 (2T), and 2% GO (2G) PES-based HFMs showing the over-view, cross-sectional view, and inner pore structure of the HFMs. The overview shows the concentric nature of the HFMs, the cross section shows the large finger-like structure and the inner surface shows the porous structure. Row (e) (SEM micrograph 2T) is reproduced from our previous work (ref. 9). This paper is an extension of that work. | ||

| Fig. 2 Elemental mapping of HFMs showing successful incorporation of TiO2 in TiO2/GO and TiO2 incorporated PES HFMs. This work is an extension to our previous work, so elemental mapping of 2T is reproduced from ref. 9. | ||
In addition, the authors regret that an incorrect version of Fig. 7 was included in the originally published article. The correct version of Fig. 7 is shown herein.
 | ||
| Fig. 3 Attachment and proliferation of the HEK293 cell line, imaged with a confocal microscope. The confocal images of the HFMs display the attachment and proliferation of HEK293 cell lines on the HFMs (plain PES (P), TG(0.5/1.5), TG(1/1), TG(1.5/0.5), 2T, 2G). TiO2/GO incorporated HFMs favour a higher density of cell attachment along with spheroid formation. Spheroid formation is observed prominently in the lower set of confocal images for TG(0.5/1.5). | ||
