title: Purification of alpha-ketoaldehyde dehydrogenase from the human liver and its possible significance in the control of glycation.
abstract: Alfa-ketoaldehyde dehydrogenase, which was extracted and purified from human livers, may act on carbonyl compounds, such as 3-deoxyglucosone, and be involved in the control of glycation (Maillard reaction) in the body.
