Correction: Preparation, Cellular Internalization, and Biocompatibility of Highly Fluorescent PMMA Nanoparticles

The authors regret that there were important omissions in the above article. The synthesis of the yellow light-emitting thiazole-dye 3-((5-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)-2-(pyridin-3-yl)thiazol-4-yl)oxy)propan-1-ol as well as the corresponding methacrylate monomer was not described in reference 29 of the manuscript or in reference 1 of the Supporting Information (in this publication only the related blue emitting monomer is described). The resulting yellow and blue polymers were both investigated – however, due to the non-visibility of the blue polymer only the yellow one was continued in the published study. In order to allow an exact reproduction of the monomer synthesis, a detailed description has been added as Supporting Information of this Correction. In the original version of the above article, three co-authors' names (Roberto Menzel, Dieter Weiß, and Rainer Beckert) were missing from the byline and affiliation. The correct author byline is as follows: Finally, the Acknowledgments section in the above article should be replaced with the following paragraph. The Thüringer Ministerium für Bildung, Wissenschaft und Kultur (TMBWK, ProExzellenz-Programm NanoConSens) is acknowledged for financial support. We gratefully thank Steffi Stumpf and Dr. Frank Steininger, EMZ Jena, for assistance in the SEM investigations.
