This erratum is being published to correct errors in the article entitled “Laboratory Aspects of Donor Screening for Fecal Microbiota Transplantation at a Korean Fecal Microbiota Bank” by Hyun Soo Seo, Hyung Sun Chin, Yeon-Hee Kim, Hye Su Moon, Kyungnam Kim, Le Phuong Nguyen, and Dongeun Yong in Ann Lab Med 2021;41:424-8 (https//doi.org/10.3343/alm.2021.41.4.424). The parasites and multidrug-resistant bacteria tested during the fecal microbiota transplantation donor screening, listed in Table 1 on page 426, should be corrected as outlined below.
Before correction:
- Parasites and ova (multiplex PCR): Ascaris lumbricoides, Cryptosporidium parvum/hominis, Ancylostoma duodenale, Necator americanus, Strongyloides stercoralis, Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, Trichuris trichiura, Clonorchis sinensis, Diphyllobothrium latum, Blastocystis hominis
- Multidrug-resistant bacteria: MRSA (Cx), CRE (Cx+PCR), VRE (Cx+PCR), ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae (Cx)
After correction:
- Parasite and ova examination (microscopy)
- Parasites (multiplex PCR): Cryptosporidium spp., Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, Cyclospora cayetanensis, Dientamoeba fragilis, Blastocystis hominis
- Multidrug-resistant bacteria: MRSA (Cx), CRE (Cx), VRE (Cx+PCR), ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae (Cx)
