The η → 3π amplitude is sensitive to the quark mass difference mu − md and offers a unique way to determine the quark mass ratio Q2 ≡ (m2s − m2ud)/(m2d − m2u) from experiment. We calculate the amplitude dispersively and fit the KLOE Collaboration data on the charged mode, varying the subtraction constants in the range allowed by chiral perturbation theory. The parameter-free predictions obtained for the neutral Dalitz plot and the neutral-to-charged branching ratio are in excellent agreement with experiment. Our representation of the transition amplitude implies
Q=22.0±0.7.
