Text Correction

In the original publication [1], a correction has been made to Section 3.3, Paragraph 1. The revised version is as follows:
Figure 3d shows a good linear relationship between the logarithm of cell number and THz wave transmittance in the range of cell numbers from 10 to 106. The linear fitting equation is T (Transmittance) = 0.8365Log(C) − 43.26, and the correlation coefficient is 0.9945.

Error in Figure

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figures 3d and 4d as published. We mistakenly wrote the cell-free sample as “lg0” and also wrongly included the cell-free sample in the fitting curve. The corrected Figure 3 and Figure 4 appear below.
