Author Correction: Antibiotic drug-resistance as a complex system driven by socio-economic growth and antibiotic misuse.

abstract：:Keratin 15 (K15), a type I keratin, which pairs with K5 in epidermis, has been used extensively as a biomarker for stem cells. Two commercial antibodies, LHK15, a mouse monoclonal and EPR1614Y, a rabbit monoclonal, have been widely employed to study K15 expression. Here we report differential reactivity of these antib...
