Correction: Hui et al. Omics Reveals the Antibacterial Mechanism of Dihydromyricetin and Vine Tea Extract Against Staphylococcus aureus via Cell Wall and Membrane Disruption. Molecules 2026, 31, 313

1. Error in Figure/Table

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 1 and Table 1. The chemical characterization of vine tea extract (VTE) was incorrectly presented in the published version. Figure 1 and Table 1, and the associated text have been corrected to reflect the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis used in this study. The corrected Figure 1 and

2. Missing Citation

In the original publication, the reference “Yilmaz, M.A.; Ertas, A.; Yener, I.; Akdeniz, M.; Cakir, O.; Altun, M.; Demirtas, I.; Boga, M.; Temel, H.

3. Text Correction

There were errors in the original publication in Section 2.1, Characterization of Major Flavonoids in Vine Tea Extract, and Section 3.2, Chemical Characterization of VTE.

A correction has been made to Section 2.1, Characterization of Major Flavonoids in Vine Tea Extract:

We characterized the major flavonoids in VTE using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The overlaid multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) chromatograms are shown in Figure 1. Based on the LC-MS/MS data (Figure 1 and Table 1), VTE contained a relatively high level of flavonoids. Four major flavonoids were detected and identified: dihydromyricetin, dihydroquercetin, myricetin 3-O-rhamnoside, and myricetin. Among them, DMY was the predominant bioactive component.

A correction has also been made to Section 3.2, Chemical Characterization of VTE:

Flavonoids in vine tea extract were analyzed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS; Nexera UHPLC system and LCMS-8040, Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan) as previously described [86]. Chromatographic separation was performed on an RP-C18 Inertsil ODS-4 analytical column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 2 μm; GL Sciences Inc., Tokyo, Japan). The mobile phase consisted of water containing 10 mM ammonium formate and 0.1% (v/v) formic acid (A) and acetonitrile (B). The gradient program was as follows: 0–10 min, 5–20% B; 10–22 min, 20% B; 22–36 min, 20–50% B; 36–40 min, 95% B; and 40–50 min, 5% B. The column temperature was set at 35 °C. The flow rate was 0.25 mL/min, and the injection volume was 4 μL. Mass spectrometric detection was performed using an electrospray ionization (ESI) source operating in negative ion mode. Dihydromyricetin (purity ≥ 95%), dihydroquercetin (purity ≥ 90%), myricetin 3-O-rhamnoside (purity ≥ 98%) and myricetin (purity ≥ 96%) were used as reference standards for qualitative identification and quantitative analysis of the target flavonoids. All samples were analyzed in triplicate.
