Annotation
The ABO antigens grouping results from approximately 1,000 seminal stains have been collected and analyzed during the last 4 years.
Abstract
Most of the stains came from rape cases where the ABO and secretor status of both complainant and suspect were known. Survey results provided information concerning the usefulness of elution and inhibition as methods of body fluid grouping, the relative strengths of reaction of the A, B and H antigens in body fluids, and the interpretation of the ABH reactions of body fluid stains. 48 tables, and 13 references (Author summary modified)
