Corrigendum to “Interaction between bacterial cell membranes and nano-TiO2 revealed by two-dimensional FTIR correlation spectroscopy using bacterial ghost as a model cell envelope” [Water Res. 118 (2017) 104–113]

Abstract

The authors regret to inform that there are few typological errors in the above-cited paper. The corrections are given below. (1) The last second sentence in Abstract. “Additionally, the asynchronous map of 2D-FTIR-COS indicated a sequential order of functionalities bonded to TiO2 nanoparticles with the order of: COO-> aromatic C=C stretching > C=O, ketone > N-H, amide II.”

(2) Section 3.2 (p. 108) “The signs of the cross peaks (Table 1) indicate that sequential order of the bonding affinities of these bands with TiO2 nanoparticles follow the order: COO-→ aromatic C=C stretching → C=O, ketone → N-H, amide II.”

(3) Section 4.1 (p. 111) “Additionally, the asynchronous map of 2D-FTIR-COS indicates the propensities of functionalities bonded to TiO2 nanoparticle followed as: COO− > aromatic C=C stretching > C=O, ketone > N-H, amide II.”

(4) The second bullet point in the Conclusions. “The asynchronous map of 2D-FTIR-COS suggested a sequential order of functionalities bonded to TiO2 nanoparticles with the order from high to low: COO-> aromatic C=C stretching > C=O, ketone > N-H, amide II.”
