Correction to: Scientific Reports 10.1038/s41598-024-75296-2 Published Online 12 October 2024.

The original version of this Article contained errors. In the Materials and methods section, under the subheading ‘Characterization of synthesized copper oxide nanoparticle, CuO-NPs’, Inline graphic was omitted from the Debye–Scherrer formulae. As a result,

now reads:

In addition, Fig. 6 contained errors, where the stated concentrations ‘10’, ‘20’, and ‘40 µg/ml’ were incorrectly given as ‘20’, ‘40’, and ‘60 µg/ml’. The original Fig. 6 and accompanying legend appear below.

Fig. 6

Disc diffusion observed when bacterial strains are treated with different concentration of GZDK- CuO NPs against (a) S. aureus, (b) P. aeruginosa and (c) E.coli; DMAZ-CuO NPs against (d) S. aureus, (e) P. aeruginosa and (f) E.coli.

Lastly, Figs. 1, 6 and 7 have been exchanged for higher resolution images.

The original Article has been corrected.

Footnotes

The original online version of this Article was revised: The original version of this Article contained errors. In the Materials and methods section, under the subheading ‘Characterization of synthesized copper oxide nanoparticle, CuO-NPs’, ‘λ was omitted from the Debye–Scherrer formulae. Furthermore, Figure 6 contained errors, where the stated concentrations ‘10’, ‘20’, and ‘40 µg/ml’ were incorrectly given as ‘20’, ‘40’, and ‘60 µg/ml’. Lastly, Figures 1, 6 and 7 have been exchanged for higher resolution images. Full information regarding the corrections made can be found in the correction for this Article.
