Abstract
Summary A woman from the Trento district of Northern Italy was found to have albumin of a variant type only. Her parents were first cousins and she had two daughters who were both alloalbuminemic. This is probably the first case of a homozygote for a slow albumin variant and it indicates that individuals with only electrophoretically unusual albumin are physiologically normal.Keywords
