In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in the preparation of Figure 3. In the COMET assay, the different photomicrographs of the microgel-electrophoresed genomic DNA of cells are very similar. An incorrect copy and paste had been performed. The corrected Figure 3 appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
Figure 3. Comet assay of genomic DNA in DU-145 cancer cells untreated and treated with the essential oils from Sa, Sj and Sv for 72 h. Representative photomicrographs of microgel electrophoresed genomic DNA of untreated and treated cancer cells (A). TMOM values (B). TMOM = tail moment expressed as the product of TD (distance between head and tail) and TDNA (percentage of the fragmented DNA). The values are the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of three experiments performed in quadruplicate. * Significant vs. control untreated cells (p < 0.001).
