The authors would like to update some important data in the manuscript. In Table 4, the pesticide means were reported in µg/mL, which is incorrect. The correct units are ng/mL (nanograms/milliliter). The same typographical inaccuracy applies for data in the fourth paragraph of the discussion (with minimal values of 0.0020 µg/mL and maximal values of 2.63 µg/mL), where the correct units are also ng/mL [1].

We want to mention that this typographical oversight does not result in any changes to the conclusions or the main subject of the research, since the data focuses on the prevalence of pesticides. It is important for us to report on this concern in order to avoid readers misinterpreting the results.
