In the published article, there were errors in Figures 2, 3, page 8 as published.
The purpose of both Figures 2, 3 was to explore the sensitivity of the novel identified target detection between genomic DNA and pure culture of P. aeruginosa. Unfortunately, during the final uploading of the data, the Figures 2, 3 were pasted incorrectly.
The corrected Figures 2, 3 and their captions appear below.

Figure 2. PCR detection sensitivity using dilutions of genomic DNA from Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 15442. Lane M = DSTM 2000 marker (Dongsheng Biotechnology, Guangdong, China); lane N = negative control (double-distilled H2O); lanes 1–8 = 65.4 ng/μl, 6.54 ng/μl, 654 pg/μl, 65.4 pg/μl, 6.54 pg/μl, 654 fg/μl, and 65.4 fg/μl, 6.54 fg/μl, respectively. (A) Primer set PA1 (169 bp); (B) primer set PA2 (325 bp); (C) primer set PA3 (263 bp); and (D) primer set PA4 (132 bp).

Figure 3. PCR detection sensitivity using dilutions of a pure culture of P. aeruginosa ATCC 15442. Lane M = DSTM 2000 marker (Dongsheng Biotechnology, Guangdong, China); lane N = negative control (double-distilled H2O); and lanes 1–8 = 2.07 × 108 CFU/ml, 2.07 × 107 CFU/ml, 1.85 × 106 CFU/ml, 4.15 × 105 CFU/ml, 4.3 × 104 CFU/ml, 9.7 × 103 CFU/ml, 1.4 × 102 CFU/ml, and 2 × 101 CFU/ml, respectively. (A) Primer set PA1 (169 bp); (B) primer set PA2 (325 bp); (C) primer set PA3 (263 bp); and (D) primer set PA4 (132 bp).
In the published article, there was an error in Supplementary Figure 1. During the assembling of different Figures, we mistakenly pasted Figure S1.d at the position of Figure S1.h.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
