Background: A deficiency in alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT1) is a rare disorder that represents a significant health threat and early diagnostic priority issue. We investigated the usefulness of the serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) as an opportunistic screening tool for AAT1 deficiency.
Methods: For 6 months, all SPE carried out for any reasons were evaluated in our center.
