The activity of diamine oxidase (DAO) in amniotic fluid was measured by three different methods. The first two, one calorimetric and the other fluorometric, depended on the coupled peroxidase assay. The other was a radiochemical procedure. The latter proved to be a reliable method, free from interfe
