Competing Interests
I have read the journal’s policy and the authors of this manuscript have the following competing interests: Previously Matthew S. Coates was employed by Respivert Ltd. Garth W. Rapeport and Kazuhiro Ito were co-founders and employees of Respivert Ltd. During the period of the research G. W. Rapeport and K. Ito were co-founders and employees of Pulmocide Ltd. This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
