(This article belongs to the Special Issue Functional Polymer Materials for Cell-Based Tissue Regeneration)
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figures 5 and 6 as published. Due to the high workload, a research scholar involved in this specific project mistakenly swapped images of antibacterial and histological assays (Figures 5 and 6). The corrected Figure 5 and Figure 6 appear below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
The revised figures have been included in the updated manuscript in the attachment.
