Correction to: Journal of Applied Phycology
The original version of this article unfortunately contained a mistake. Listed below are the corrections: 1) A short explanation must be added at the end of the caption of Figure 1. The revised caption is now given below: Fig. 1 The content (mean ± SD) of Al (a), As species (b), and Ni (c) in Spirulina (left column; n = 13) and Chlorella (right column; n = 10) in food supplements. The red line represents TolerableWeekly Intake (TWI) set by the EC considering a weekly consumption at a daily dose of 3.0 g by a 70-kg adult; the dashed red line represents Provisional Tolerable Weekly Intake (PTWI) set by theWorld Health Organization considering the same consumption as for TWI calculation. The dotted red line represents the Benchmark Dose Lower Confidence Limit (BMDL01) set for inorganic As at a consumption of 3.0 g of supplement by a 70-kg adult. bdl, below detection limits. 2) In the caption of Fig. 2, a comment given during proofreading process was erroneously inserted. The comment was removed from the caption. In addition, there was a small amendment done: "and Hg..." was deleted from "(c) and Hg in Spirulina (left column; n = 13)...". The revised caption is now given below:Fig. 2 The content (mean ± SD) of Cd (a), Hg (b), and Pb (c) in Spirulina (left column; n = 13) and Chlorella (right column; n = 10) food supplements. The blue line represents maximum allowance limit for food supplements established by the European Commission. bdl, below detection limits.
