  • Title: Examination of the correlation of groupings in blood and semen.
    Author: Fowler JC, Scott AC.
    Journal: J Forensic Sci; 1985 Jan; 30(1):103-13. PubMed ID: 2580041.
    Abstract:
    The grouping of blood/saliva samples from a male so as to predict his semen groups is only justified if there is a strict correlation between the groupings in these body fluids. This correlation has been examined in the ABO, phosphoglucomutase (PGM1) and glyoxalase I (GLO) grouping systems in blood and semen samples collected from more than 250 individuals. Though no results proved inconsistent with this correlation, a number of semen gave inconclusive grouping results. Reasons for this are discussed as well as the relevance of the results to semen stain analysis. Semen amylase activities are also reported.
