The authors have advised on page 6475 is incorrect. The authors inadvertently included a duplicate image for the live/dead Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PEEK samples shown in Figures 6 and , respectively. The correct is as follows.

Figure 7 Live/dead assay of Pseudomonas aeruginosa attached on (A) PEEK and (B) PEKK samples (SYTO® 9 and propidium iodide respectively stained live [green] and dead [red] bacteria cells).

Notes: No red stained bacteria observed in these images. Scale bars =50 microns.
Abbreviations: PEEK, poly-ether-ether-ketone; PEKK, poly-ether-ketone-ketone.
