  • Title: Evaluation of antisera for bloodstain grouping. II. Ss, Kell, Duffy, Kidd, and Gm/Km.
    Author: Gaensslen RE, Lee HC, Pagliaro EM, Bremser JK, Carroll-Reho J.
    Journal: J Forensic Sci; 1985 Jul; 30(3):655-76. PubMed ID: 4031801.
    Abstract:
    Thirty-one different examples of commercially available blood grouping antisera specific for the S, s, K, k, Fya, Fyb, Jka, and Jkb antigens and anti-human globulin sera were serologically evaluated with red cells and in absorption-elution tests to determine their applicability to bloodstain antigen determinations. Nineteen examples of commercially available antisera specific for various Gm and Km antigens and their corresponding anti-D reagents were likewise evaluated in inhibition tests with sera and bloodstains. Elution tests with the blood grouping antisera and inhibition tests with the Gm/Km antisera on a series of aging bloodstains on cotton cloth, and on bloodstains on a number of different substrata, demonstrated that properly evaluated commercial antisera are useful reagents for bloodstain grouping in forensic serology.
