Correction

JALA sincerely regrets that the paper entitled “Verifying Liquid-Handler Performance for Complex or Nonaqueous Reagents: A New Approach” by Keith J. Albert, John Thomas Bradshaw, Tanya R. Knaide, and Alexis L. Rogers (pages 172–180, JALA 11.4 August 2006) was published with two notable errors. In eq 3, the term π tanθ in the numerator of the third term in the sum should be π tan²θ. Also in this same equation, the subscript d should be dropped from A₅₂₀ in the third term in the sum. Thus, the correct form of eq 3 is:

$\begin{array}{ll}{V}_S\hfill & =\frac{\pi D^2}{4a_{{\lambda }_{\text{red}}}}\left(A_{520}\right)+\frac{\pi Dtan\theta }{2a_{{\lambda }_{\text{red}}}\times a_{{\lambda }_{\text{blue}}}}\left(A_{520}\right)\times \left(A_{730}\right)\hfill \\ +\frac{\pi {tan}^2\theta }{3a_{{\lambda }_{\text{red}}}\times a_{{\lambda }_{\text{blue}}}^2}\left(A_{520}\right)\times \left(A_{730}^2\right)\hfill \end{array}$
