✦ Synopsis
On page 427 of the article referenced above, under the heading Assessment of Neurotoxicity in the Materials and Methods section, the formula given for the assessment of percentage cell viability was printed incorrectly. The formula is correctly stated in a footnote to Table on page 429. The correct formula appears below: 100 ϫ (OD of glutamate ϩ ginsenoside-treated Ϫ OD of glutamate-treated)/(OD of control Ϫ OD of glutamate-treated).
