32. This scalar sextet was first introduced in the second paper in Ref. [11]. Recently it was reintroduced in Refs.:. Ky N.A., and Van N.T.H. Phys. Rev. D 72 (2005) 115017

35. Cogollo D., Diniz H., de S. Pires C.A., and Rodrigues da Silva P.S. Eur. Phys. J. C 58 (2008) 455 Both works used the sextet to implement the type I seesaw mechanism into the model
36. The type II seesaw mechanism in a version of the 3-3-1 models called the minimal 3-3-1 model was implemented in Refs.:. Montero J.C., de S. Pires C.A., and Pleitez V. Phys. Lett. B 502 (2001) 167
37. Tully M.B., and Joshi G.C. Phys. Rev. D 64 (2001) 011301 Concerning these works, we would like to emphasize two points. First, that a sextet of scalar is required also to implement the mechanism and that the mechanism is capable of generating masses to the left-handed neutrinos only
