It should rather read, “antibiotics and are inhibited by beta-lactamase”. On the same page, column and paragraph, line 20 reads, “blaSHV and blaCTX-M genes with the former being …”. Instead it should read “blaSHV and blaCTX-M genes with the latter being …”. On page 8, column 1, paragraph 2, line 7 reads, “[49–54]. Reported all isolates from chronic wounds with”. Instead it should read “[49–54]. Wolters et al. reported all isolates from chronic wounds with “. “Wolters et al.“ was omitted.

Instead it should read “innate resistance of P. aeruginosa for ampicillin, ampi-“. The original article has been corrected.
