  1. aThe OMT activity toward flavonoids respective to that toward quercetin at a substrate concentration of 50 µM
  2. bMinus signs indicate that no product was detected in the HPLC analysis
  3. cPlus signs represent that the flavonoids tested were used as a substrate that yielded a product peak in the HPLC analysis. The relative activities of the substrates were not determined
