โฆ Synopsis
RG7 4PN, England
Antibodies to specijc parasites may be readily detected in eluates of dried bloodstains. The method is based upon the reaction of a serum antibody with an antigen on a microscope slide. The presence of a positive reaction is visualized by JEuorescence microscopy after reacting the antigen-antibody complex withJEuorescein-labelled anti-human immunoglobulin. The frequency of antibodies to jive antigens in a random sample of bloodstains has been obtained and the Discriminating Power of these jive alone is found to be better than that achieved by the ABO blood grouping system. Other applications of the technique in forensic biology are brieJy discussed.
