- PreviewIn the September 2013 issue (Volume 33, number 3), for the article “Advanced techniques for detection and identification of microbial agents of gastroenteritis,” the abstract states that traditional diagnostic methods can “be labor intensive and suffer from long turnaround times and, in some cases, poor and Yi-Wei Tang sensitivity.” This statement should instead read, “…be labor intensive and suffer from long turnaround times and, in some cases, poor sensitivity.”
