Correction: Design and expression of a chimeric recombinant antigen (SsIR-Ss1a) for the serodiagnosis of human strongyloidiasis: Evaluation of performance, sensitivity, and specificity (The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, (2018), 98, 4, (1165–1170), 10.4269/ajtmh.17-0697)

Abstract

In the Introduction of this article [1], a citation [2] (reference 32 of [1]) is omitted from the first sentence of the fourth paragraph. The correct sentence is: So far, several recombinant antigens have been produced and evaluated for the diagnosis of strongyloidiasis, of which a 31-kDa recombinant antigen (NIE),S. stercoralis immunoreactive antigen (SsIR), fatty acid and retinol-binding protein (FAR), 14-33 protein, and the recently introduced Ss1a-recombinant protein have received more attention [17–20, 32]. The reference is: Arifin N, Yunus MH, Nolan TJ, Lok JB, Noordin R (2018) Identification and preliminary evaluation of a novel recombinant protein for serodiagnosis of strongyloidiasis.
