Abstract
Correction for ‘A biomimetic human disease model of bacterial keratitis using a cornea-on-a-chip system’ by Yudan Deng et al., Biomater. Sci., 2024, 12, 5239–5252, https://doi.org/10.1039/D4BM00833B.
The authors regret inadvertently missing two sample groups from the original data repository. The updated data repository is publicly available at https://pan.baidu.com/s/1Jl5XX3cpgeQDro8bdN_wZA?pwd=e6y9.
The authors regret an error in Fig. 5B in the original manuscript. The correct version of Fig. 5 is as shown below.

| Fig. 5 Engineering model of BK. (A) Schematic diagram of the process of constructing cornea-on-a-chip infected with S. aureus. (B) Micrographs of cell live/dead staining of intact and defective corneal tissue before and after infection with S. aureus. Infect time, 24 h. Green, live cells; red, dead cells. Scale bar, 500 μm. (C) The cell viability of HCECs and HCFs before and after infection calculated from Fig. 4B. “ns” no significant difference, “**” P < 0.01, “****” P < 0.0001. The representative data from three independent samples. | ||
