    Abstract:
    Transferrin (Tf) is an important genetic marker for personal identification in forensic science. We examined the subtypes in human semen, semen stain, vaginal fluid and mixed stain using isoelectric focusing and immunoblotting method(IEFIB). The results showed that, Tf subtypes of 8 semen and semen stain samples stored at room temperature for up to 32 weeks were the same as those in sera. Tf subtypes of 17 vaginal fluid and 4 mixed stain containing few semen were not detected. Tf Subtyping of 1 mixed stain containing enough semen was successful by using IEFIB. These results indicate that Tf is stable in semen stain. The Tf subtyping in semen stain and mixed stain containing enough semen can be carried out by using IEFIB method.
