This Article contains errors.


As a result of an error during figure assembly, in Figure 5C the culture image for sample Re-2D is incorrect. The correct Figure 5 is included below as Figure 1.

Calcium deposition. Representative photomicrographs of Von Kossa-stained primary osteoblast cultures (A) and MC3T3-E1 cell cultures (C). Cells were cultured for 21 days in osteogenic medium under 2-dimensional (2D) or 3-dimensional (3D) conditions. A separate group of cells in 3D cultures for 10 days was recovered and plated back in 2D cultures for another 21 days (Re-2D) in osteogenic medium. Calcium deposits in the extracellular matrix were identified with Von Kossa staining. Calcium levels normalised by total DNA were statistically analysed using a one-way ANOVA (B,D). *p < 0.05.
