The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake. The labelling of Fig. 1 was incorrect. The correct symbols are black triangle for wild type (1026b) and black square for LPS mutant (SRM117) as shown in Fig. 1 below.

Survival kinetics of wild-type B. pseudomallei (1026b) and B. pseudomallei LPS mutant (SRM117) inside primary human monocytes at different time points. Primary human monocytes were infected with each bacteria strain at MOI of 1:1 by antibiotic protection assay. Primary human monocytes viability was determined using 0.04 % trypan blue staining to ensure that around 80 % of host cells remain alive at the final time point. The results represent mean CFU ± SE of seven independent experiments. Data from seven independent experiments were analyzed by Student’s t test (*p < 0.05)

However, the discussion in the original version of this article is not affected.
