ResumoThis erratum corrects DOI:10.1002/dta.1735 published online 8 October 2014 in Wiley Online Library. The Frenzy products we tested for our study were not purchased in the USA nor were they shipped from any retailer/distributor to the USA; rather, as we said in the Short Communication, the Frenzy products were purchased from an online retailer in the UK. While we are not aware of Driven Sports (the manufacturer of Frenzy) or any of its authorized US distributors selling Frenzy in the USA, as of the relevant time period of our study (April 2014), the USA Today was reporting that on April 9, 2014, Frenzy was available for sale on ebay's U.S. site. [A. Young. FDA warns maker of controversial sports supplement Craze. USA Today, April 15, 2014.] We have since confirmed that Frenzy is still offered for sale on ebay's U.S. site and can be purchased from sellers (including those sellers based in the US) on eBay's U.S. site. The inclusion criteria, therefore, include products containing DMBA available to U.S. consumers from various on-line sources.
