Correction to: Scientific Reports https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-74031-x, published online 07 October 2020
The original version of this Article contained errors in the concentration of the components of the staining protocol.
As a result, in the Materials and Methods section, under subheading ‘Staining Protocol and Properties’,
"Thereafter, the sections were stained with 1% fast green FCF in distilled water for 20 min and rinsed in tap water for 5 min. Finally, the sections were stained with 1% sirius red in saturated aqueous solution of picric acid (i.e., picrosirius red) for 30 min, rinsed in two changes of 5 min in acidified water (1% acetic acid in tap water), dehydrated in two changes of 100% ethanol, cleared in xylene, and mounted in a resinous medium."
now reads:
“Thereafter, the sections were stained with 0.04% fast green FCF in distilled water for 20 min and rinsed in tap water for 5 min. Finally, the sections were stained with 0.1% sirius red in saturated aqueous solution of picric acid (i.e., picrosirius red) for 30 min, rinsed in two changes of 5 min in acidified water (1% acetic acid in tap water), dehydrated in two changes of 100% ethanol, cleared in xylene, and mounted in a resinous medium.”
The original Article has been corrected.
