In the published article, there was an error in Table 1 as published. The sequence of the LAMP internal backward and forward primers (BIP and FIP, respectively) in Table 1 was displayed as BIP 5′ – TTG TGC TCG AGT CGT GGC GCA TAC GAT AGG TGC GAA T-3′ and FIP 5′ ACC GCA GCA TCT CAA TCA AGT CGA AGG CTC CGT CCT AAT – 3′, while the corrected sequences are BIP 5′- AGA AGT GTT TAA CTT GAT GAA GGG GAA ACA AAA CCG AAA CCA CTA−3′and FIP 5′- GCC AAG TAG AGA CTA CAA ACA TCT TTG GGT AAG GTA GAA AAT GTT GT−3′. The correct sequences were added to Table 1 and its caption remains the same as the original table, which appear below.
