Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-023-44626-1, published online 30 October 2023
The original version of this Article contained an error in Figure 6, where the pink colour representing the medium within the transwell inserts was not visible. The original Figure 6 and the accompanying legend appear below.
Air–liquid interface (ALI) exposure systems used by Rudd et al. (2020) and by this replication study in order to perform NRU assay. (A) Rudd et al. (2020) used the 96-well plate and they removed the culture medium from each well to expose BEAS-2B cells at the ALI. (B) In this study, the culture medium is removed from the upper part of the Transwell inserts and then placed in the exposure chambers on a plastic support that allows the cells to remain basally wet with medium and to be exposed to the smoke/vapor apically by the LM1/LM4 machines. The BAT exposure chamber allows a symmetrical aerosol distribution by the disc and ensures uniform cellular ALI exposure avoiding the accumulation of aerosol inside the system.
The original Article has been corrected.
