In the article by Fossati et al. entitled "A step forward in enzymatic measurement of creatinine," 1994;40:130-7, suppliers of sera were mistakenly identified. Sera were supplied by the German Society of Clinical Chemistry. Creatinine concentrations were determined by isotope dilution-gas chromatographymass spectrometry in three laboratories (D. Stöckl, INSTAND e. V., Düsseldorf; L. Siekmann, Institut für Klinische Biochemie, Bonn; A. De Leenheer/L. M. Thienpont, Universiteit Gent, Fac. Farmac. Wetenschappen, Gent), participants in the interlaboratory comparison exercise "Creatinine in Serum" (EC M+T project 376).
In the article by Taneda and Monnier entitled "ELISA of pentosidine, an advanced glycation end product, in biological specimens," 1994;40:1766-73, line 20 of the abstract should state "2630 ± 1320 nmol/L, respectively"; on page 1770, column 1, line 17, the units should have been expressed as nmol/L, not µmol/L. The units of pentosidine in Figures 8-10 contain errors. Figure 8 should state: Pentosidine by HPLC (nmol/L plasma), not (µmol/L plasma). Figure 9 should state: Pentosidine (nmol/L plasma), not (µmol/L plasma). Figure 10 should state: Pentosidine (nmol/g collagen), not µmol/g collagen).
In the review by Kroll and Elin entitled "Interference with clinical laboratory analyses," 1994;40:1996-2005, the theophylline reagents used for the Hitachi 717 were obtained from GDS Diagnostics, Elkhart, IN. On page 1998, column 1, line 32, reference 32 was incorrectly cited; the correct reference is 37. On page 1998, column 2, line 17, reference 37 is listed in error.
