Error in Table
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in the caption for Table 2, “Kinetic parameters of G. lucidum in shake flask compared to ALSB”, as published. The caption was misleading. The corrected Table 2 Caption, “Total biomass and EPS yield of Ganoderma lucidum in both shake flask and ALSB”, appears below.
Text Correction
A correction has been made to Section 3.1.
As shown in Figure 2, the standard growth curve of the ALSB is evidently higher than that of the shake flask and follows the typical fungal fermentation growth curve (exponential phase from day 5 and transition phase from day 10) [18]. The highest biomass concentration in the shake flask was 2.6 g/L on day 9 compared to 5.7 g/L for the ALSB on day 11. Meanwhile, the highest EPS in the shake flask was 1.68 g/L on day 11 compared to ALSB (3.8 g/L) on day 11. In Table 2, the total biomass and EPS yield of Ganoderma lucidum in both the shake flask and the ALSB are shown. The total biomass yield for the 15 days was 12.31 g/L in the shake flask and 33.96 g/L in the ALSB (2.8-fold higher in the ALSB).
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
