Article Outline
Errors occurred during typesetting of Table 1 for the above review article. The flavonol morin has hydroxyl groups at positions 3, 5, 7, 2′ and 4′ (not 3, 7, 2′, 4′ and 5′), and the flavan-3-ol catechin has hydroxyl groups at positions 3, 5, 7, 3′ and 4′ (not 3, 4, 7, 3′ and 5′). The structures of these compounds should have been given in Table 1 as shown below.
