[Sensitivity of various study technics in blood stains].

Quadratic pieces of fleece measuring 16 mm2 were soaked with 10 different blood-samples in the dilution steps of 1:1, 1:10, 1:100, 1:1000, respectively, and were tested in blood group typing and identification tests of forensic serology. The above spezified dilutions correspond with 5 microliters, 0.5 microliter, 0.05 microliter and 0.005 microliter of blood, respectively. The detection limit of the microspectrometric test for blood was the dilution 1:10, of the porphyrine test a dilution above 1:100, whereas the preliminary test for blood (peroxidase) succeeded always up to a dilution of 1:1000 and the species determination by the radial immunodiffusion test in agar gels succeeded in most cases op to a dilution of 1:1000. The detection limit of the anti-human globulin inhibition test was between the dilution steps 1:10 and 1:100 when non-titrated and undiluted anti-human globulin serum was used. Gc- and ABO-grouping were possible up to a dilution of 1:100 and were thus the most sensitive grouping systems. Phenotyping of the enzyme-systems and the Gm/Km-system usually required stains with considerably higher blood concentrations i.e. stains of undiluted blood.

[Gm/Km determination in sperm traces].

In the forensic laboratories of the Federal Republic of Germany and West-Berlin 23 different semen stains and in our own laboratory 20 semen stains were typed in the gm/km-system doing 125 and 61 (own) test respectively. Examination was carried out by means of the haemagglutination method, which has been used successfully in typing bloodstains. Our critical assessment based on earlier experiences with semen stains was now confirmed and statistically evaluated: typing was successful in about 35-50% of the tests, but besides false-negative results, there was also a considerable percentage (4-10%) of false-positive ones. Therefore for the present it seems best to exclude the gm/km-typing of secretion stains from forensic investigations in order to avoid false incriminations or exonerations of suspects.
