Corrigendum on: Yoo-Seung Ko, Eun-Ji Gi, Sungsu Lee, Hyong-Ho Cho, 2023 Feb "Dual Red and Near-Infrared Light-Emitting Diode Irradiation Ameliorates LPS-Induced Otitis Media in a Rat Model". Front Bioeng Biotechnol, 22:11:1099574. doi: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1099574. eCollection.1. In the published article, there was an error in the Abstract section, specifically in the Methods paragraph (paragraph 2).A correction has been made to the light intensity value."A red/NIR LED system was used to irradiate the rats (655/842 nm, intensity: 102 mW/m 2 , time: 30 min/day for 3 days and cells (653/842 nm, intensity: 49.4 mW/m 2 , time: 3 h) after LPS exposure."The corrected sentence appears below: "A red/NIR LED system was used to irradiate the rats (655/842 nm, intensity: 163.2 W/m², time: 30 min/day for 3 days and cells (653/842 nm, intensity: 19.76 W/m², time: 3 h) after LPS exposure." 2. In the published article, there was an error in the Materials and Methods section, specifically in the Light source and irradiation subsection (paragraph 2).Corrections have been made to the light intensity value."The power intensity of the LED light was 102 W/m²." "HMEECs and RAW 264.7 cells were irradiated with red and NIR wavelengths of 653 nm and 842 nm, respectively, and an intensity of 49.4 mW/m 2 for 3 h after LPS stimulation."The corrected sentence appears below:"The power intensity of the LED light was 163.2 W/m².""HMEECs and RAW 264.7 cells were irradiated with red and NIR wavelengths of 653 nm and 842 nm, respectively, and an intensity of 19.76 W/m 2 for 3 h after LPS stimulation." 3. In the published article, there was an error in the Results section, specifically in the Reduction of ME mucosal thickness by red/NIR LED irradiation subsection (paragraph 2).A correction has been made to the light intensity value."To investigate the therapeutic effect of the red/NIR LED on LPS-induced AOM, rats were irradiated through the ear canal using the red/NIR LED with wavelengths of 655 nm and 842 nm and an intensity of 102 mW/m 2 for 3 days after LPS injection.""To investigate the therapeutic effect of the red/NIR LED on LPS-induced AOM, rats were irradiated through the ear canal using the red/NIR LED with wavelengths of 655 nm and 842 nm and an intensity of 163.2 W/m 2 for 3 days after LPS injection." 4. In the published article, there were errors in the Supplementary Figure Legend section, specifically in Supplementary Figure S1, which is the schematic diagram of the LED system."The original sentence stated:
