Abstract

Correction for ‘Making the move towards modernized greener separations: introduction of the analytical method greenness score (AMGS) calculator’ by Michael B. Hicks et al., Green Chem., 2019, 21, 1816–1826, DOI: 10.1039/C8GC03875A.


The authors would like to make readers aware of two incorrect values quoted at the beginning of section 3.5.1 of the published version of this paper. The correct values are indicated in bold below.

“Several companies provided preparative HPLC and preparative SFC data that were normalized to one hour of separation time for comparison purposes. The average AMGS for preparative HPLC was 6206; ranging from 2273 to 10[thin space (1/6-em)]405 which resulted in a wide 53% RSD. The average AMGS for preparative SFC was 3163, ranging from 2323 to 4893, with a 38% RSD.”

The authors in collaboration with the ACS Green Chemistry Institute (GCI) now make this Analytical Method Greenness Score (AMGS) available to freely access on the web for any device with internet access. The web-based tool includes: a pre-populated example, an easy “how to use guide”, and an “about the AMGS information page”. Please visit https://www.acsgcipr.org/amgs.
