In the article by Silva MR et al. entitled "Alpha chain hemoglobins with electrophoretic mobility similar to that of hemoglobin S in a newborn screening program" which appeared in the volume 35 number 2 issue of the Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, a correction should be noted. The legend of Figure 3 part A. should read:
Figure 3 - Products of PCR and PCR-RFLP for the detection of Hb St Luke's (A) and Hb Ottawa (B and C) A) Lanes 1 to 4 show amplicons derived from the exon 2 of the HBA1 gene (651 bp). Lanes 5 to 8 show the restriction products from samples 1 to 4 with the endonuclease NlaIV. Lanes 6 and 8 illustrate two samples with the mutation that encodes Hb St Luke's. The fragment of 171 bp is not present in the wild gene
