Author Correction: Evaluation of in vitro and in vivo antibiotic efficacy against a novel bioluminescent Shigella flexneri.

abstract：:Directed transport of biological species across the surface of a substrate is essential for realizing lab-on-chip technologies. Approaches that utilize localized magnetic fields to manipulate magnetic particles carrying biological entities are attractive owing to their sensitivity, selectivity, and minimally disruptiv...
