Abstract
The authors regret misspelling the word “α-thujene” that should be corrected to “thujone”. Considering this mistake, the following corrections should be taken into account:



Abstract (page 69, lines 8 and 9): “the compounds and α-thujene respectively that” should be removed.
Discussion (page 71, right column, lines 6-9): “This toxicity may be related to the presence of α-thujene in the essential oil, which possesses toxic and lethal effects [10, 11]” should be changed to “Lethality of the essential oil might also be related to pinenes, as near 70% of the oil is composed of alpha and beta pinene.”
References (page 72): References 10 and 11 should be removed.



The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused.
