title: Human serum monoamine oxidase.
abstract: A study on serum monoamine oxidase (MAO) levels in fibrotic disease processes led us to investigate patients with moderate to severe burns. Strikingly low serum MAO activity was found in patients with relatively recent, severe injuries. So far, we have no explanation to offer for the phenomena observed.
