Serum levels of alpha 1 antitrypsin (AAT) were determined in 100 mestizo individuals from Mexico. They were selected among those whose ancestors lived in Mexico at least for three generations, no clinical incidence of acute or chronic disease. Concentration ranged from 57-148 UI/ml and are lower than those reported in the literature. No age or sex differences were found. A total of 95% of the population fall between 68-136 UI/ml.
