Abstract: Concerns were raised by a third party regarding the Live/Dead staining micrographs for the PDMS and Coated-PDMS (15 mg mL -1 ) groups at 72 hours in Figure 5d, which appeared to depict overlapping microscopic fields.Upon review of the original files, the authors confirmed that both images had, in error, been captured from the same sample.As the comprehensive set of original raw images could not be retrieved, the authors repeated the experiment using the original protocol described in the manuscript, and acquired images using a Keyence microscope (BZ-X700 Series, USA).The newly obtained data are consistent with the original findings, and the study's analyses and conclusions remain unchanged.The new micrographs are presented in the corrected Figure 5 below.The authors sincerely regret this oversight.
