Solid Lipid Nanoparticles for Thermoresponsive Targeting: Evidence from Spectrophotometry, Electrochemical, and Cytotoxicity Studies [Corrigendum]

Abstract

Rehman M, Ihsan A, Madni A, et al. Int J Nanomedicine. 2017;12:8325–8336. The authors have advised Figure 3 on page 8332 is incorrect. An error was made in the labelling of the images with some FLOM samples incorrectly labelled as FLOD samples. The authors inadvertently selected a mislabelled FLOM sample to represent the FLOD sample without realising both the FLOM and FLOD images were the same. The correct Figure 3 is shown below. Figure 3 TEM images of (A) FLOM, (B) FLOD, (C) FLLM and (D) FLLD. Abbreviations: TEM, transmission electron microscopy; FLOM, 5-FU-loaded lauric acid and oleic acid nanoparticles prepared with mono-surfactant system; FLOD, 5-FU-loaded lauric acid and oleic acid nanoparticles prepared with double-surfactant system; FLLM, 5-FU-loaded lauric acid and linoleic acid nanoparticles prepared with mono-surfactant system; FLLD, 5-FU-loaded lauric acid and linoleic acid nanoparticles prepared with double-surfactant system; 5-FU, 5-fluorouracil. The authors apologize for this error and advise that this does not affect the results of the paper. Read the original article
