Correction to: Liquid Biphasic System: A Recent Bioseparation Technology (Processes, (2020), 8, 2, (149), 10.3390/pr8020149)

In the original publication, there was an error after the proofreading process in which the sequence order of the references was adjusted ahead of another statement throughout the published article.; therefore, the authors wish to make the following corrections. With this correction, the Editorial Office together with the authors are making the following amendments to the published article [1]: The following statement, “The application of the LBS has been applied for the extraction, separation, and purification of proteins, lipids, and carotenoids from microalgae [2,13]”. is replaced with the following references [2,13,14] as below in the published article. The following statement, “It was started back in 1896 when Martinus Willem Beijerinck accidentally mixed an aqueous starch solution with gelatin and found that an immersible layer was formed between both the aqueous solutions [14,15]”. is replaced with the following references [15,16] as below in the published article. The following statement, “This idea of LBS as an analytical separation technique was sparked by Per-Åke Albertsson in the 1960s who discovered the phenomenon by mixing two different polymers (e.g., polyethylene glycol and dextran) resulting in an aqueous medium containing two separable phases [14,16,17]”. is replaced with the following references [15,17,18] as below in the published article. The following statement, “The LBS is well-known for the extraction of different biotechnological materials such as proteins, lipids, and carotenoids [1,18,19]”. is replaced with the following references [1,19,20] as below in the published article. The following statement, “Likewise, LBS has the capability of directing the target biomolecules by partitioning them to the top phase for extraction [20]”. is replaced with the following references [21] as below in the published article. The following statement, “Conventional polymer-based LBS which possess a low ionic system is generally used for the separation and purification of biomolecules which are sensitive toward ionic condition [16]”. is replaced with the following references [17] as below in the published article. The following statement, “During the planning stage, it is crucial to understand the complexity of the physical and chemical interaction reaction throughout the partitioning process in the LBS [21]”. And “Lastly, is to assess the effect of each process parameters on the product recovery and purity [21]”. is replaced with the following references [22] as below in the published article. The following statement, “Fundamental principles for the formation of LBS requires a phase diagram or also called the binodal curve where these provide a set of information regarding the two-phase formation and their required concentration in the top and bottom phases [22]” is replaced with the following references [23] as below in the published article. The following statement “A detailed study has been evaluated previously by Iqbal et al., (2016) on the tie line length (TLL) and slope tie line (STL) for the construction of phase diagrams [23]”. should be replaced with reference [24] below in the published article. The following statement, “Binodal curves can be constructed using three methods namely, turbidometric titration, cloud point, and node determination method for predetermined phase diagram [22,24,25]”. is replaced with the following references [23,25,26] as below in the published article. The following statement, “The purpose of using polymer-based LBS is that the chemical composition of a non-ionic characteristics toward an ionic environment is compatible towards biomolecules having low ionic strength [16]”. is replaced with the following references [17] as below in the published article. The following statement, “Aside from that, the phase forming component from polymer-based has the ability to be recycled and reused for subsequent extraction process and this reduces the cost of polymers phase-forming component [26]”. is replaced with the following references [27] as below in the published article. The following statement, “Polymer-based LBS are commonly used for protein extraction due to its poor hydrophilic and hydrophobic interaction in polymer/salt-based LBS”. should refer to the following reference [14] as below in the published article. The following statement, “In most work, conventional polymer-based LBS has been replaced by using thermo-separating polymers as the phase-forming component to overwhelm the limitation of polymer-based LBS such as high viscosity and difficulties in recycling process [27,28]”. is replaced with the following references [28,29] as below in the published article. The following statement, “Thermo-separating polymers are random, di-block, and tri-block co-polymers of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) [29]”. is replaced with the following references [30] as below in the published article. The following statement, “Thermo-separating polymers have a low cloud point temperature (≤47 °C) which is suitable to achieve temperature-induced phase separation where a target protein can be recovered from the polymer [30]”. is replaced with the following references [31] as below in the published article.
