ANTIGENS AND ANTIBODIES THAT DETERMINE ABO BLOOD TYPES AND THE RH FACTOR
ABO blood classification systemA. Antigens1. Proteins found on the surface of every RBC. 2. There are over 100 different antigens in the human blood.3. Two of the antigens, labeled as A and B, are the ones used on the RBC surface to determine blood type.
![Page 11: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
ANTIGENS AND ANTIBODIES THAT DETERMINE ABO BLOOD TYPES AND THE RH FACTOR
If antigen A is present a person is A blood type.
If antigen B is present a person is B blood type.
If both antigens A & B are present a person is AB blood type.
If neither antigens A & B are present a person is O blood type.
![Page 12: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ANTIGENS AND ANTIBODIES THAT DETERMINE ABO BLOOD TYPES AND THE RH FACTOR
Antibodies Manufactures by some of the WBC and found in the blood
serum. Function is to attack any invader (antigen) that enters the
bloodstream that does not belong in your system. A person has antibodies again antigens that are not
found on the surface of their own RBC. Rh Factor (Rhesus factor)
Antigen found on the surface of a RBC. If a person has the Rh antigen they are Rh positive (Rh+). If a person does not have the Rh antigen they are Rh
negative (Rh-).
![Page 13: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
DETERMINE GENETIC PROBABILITIES USING BLOOD TYPES
Punnet Squares: A parent passes on one of two genes for blood type to the offspring. One of two genes is also passed on for the Rh factor. In order to be recessive in type or Rh, BOTH genes must be recessive. Using a Punnet square can determine if a blood type is possible in an offspring. This is useful in many ways, one of the most common being paternity.

PROPERTIES OF BLOOD Blood Volume
On average, accounts for 8 % of total body weight
5 to 6 liters of blood for males 4 to 5 liters of blood for females A 40 percent blood volume loss, internally
or/and externally, is required to produce irreversible shock (death).
A blood loss of 1.5 liters, internally or externally, is required to cause incapacitation.
![Page 17: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
BLOOD TYPING USING SALIVA Blood typing can be done on people who
are called “secretors” 80% of the population are secretors. A secretor is a person who has the gene to
secrete blood type substances (A, B & H)in a soluble glycoprotein form in their body fluids, like saliva, tears, gastric juice, etc.
The “A” and “B” substances are derived from the “H” substance
![Page 18: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
BLOOD TYPING USING SALIVA If cells do not clump, the person is a
secretor If the cells clump (agglutination), the
person is a non-secretor Lectin is a plant substance that reacts
with blood group substances The lectin will indicate if an H
substance is present in the blood (an H substance is the A or B)
![Page 19: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
BLOOD TYPING USING SALIVA If H group is present, then anit-A serum
and anti-B serum can be added to determine blood group
![Page 20: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
BLOOD DETECTION LABS Before blood can be used as evidence, it must
first be confirmed to be blood. Test 1: Presumptive Blood test. This test
shows the presence of hemoglobin. It is not human specific.
“Every contact leaves a trace.” Blood evidence is extremely important in
forensics. It can be used to determine the nature of the crime, blood types, DNA, recreate a crime scene, etc.
![Page 21: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
PRESUMPTIVE BLOOD TEST However, running blood tests and DNA tests
is very time consuming and expensive. If a sample is sent to a lab for processing, it is best to know if the sample is most likely blood or not.
A presumptive blood test “presumes” a substance is blood if it reacts to chemicals in a particular way.
The most common presumptive test that is run is the Kastle-Meyer Test .
![Page 22: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
KASTLE-MEYER TEST Kastle-Meyer is quick, inexpensive, easy
and does not compromise the integrity of the sample, like DNA. It is very sensitive, 1:10,000. One drop of blood diluted 10,000 times with water can still be detected.
It does not distinguish between human and animal blood. It detects the iron in hemoglobin, so other products with iron could also give a positive result.
![Page 23: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Products used: Alcohol (cleans sample and exposes more hemoglobin), phenolphthalein (changes color with oxidation – tells you if the test is bad and you need to redo it), hydrogen peroxide (releases extra oxygen, causes the pink color if oxygen is released from the hemoglobin)
![Page 24: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
BLOOD DETECTION LABS Test 2: Luminol Test. This test shows where
blood has been present but wiped away. It can also react to a number of substances such as copper or copper-containing alloys, and certain bleaches; and, as a result, if a crime scene is thoroughly cleaned with a bleach solution or horseradish, residual cleaner will cause the entire crime scene to produce the typical blue glow, effectively camouflaging any organic evidence, such as blood. Luminol reacts with fecal matter, causing the same glow as if it were blood.
![Page 25: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Surface TensionThe elastic like property of the surface of the liquid that makes it tend to contract,caused by the forces of attraction between the molecules of the liquid.The cohesive forces tend to resist penetration and separation.
![Page 26: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
BLOOD SPATTER Bloodstain Pattern Analysis: is the
examination of the shapes, locations, and distribution patterns of bloodstains, in order to provide an interpretation of the physical events which gave rise to their origin.
Based on the premise that all bloodstains and bloodstain patternsare characteristic of the forces that have created them.

The determinations made from bloodstain patterns at the scene or from the clothingof principals in a case can be used to:
Confirm or refute assumptions concerning events and their sequence:Position of victim. (standing, sitting, lying)Evidence of a struggle. (blood smears, blood trails) n
Confirm or refute statements made by principals in the case:Are stain patterns on a suspects clothing consistent with his reported actions?Are stain patterns on a victim or at a scene consistent with accounts given by witnesses or the suspect?

BLOOD SPATTER At a crime scene the blood spatter patterns are
photographed before the blood is collected so that the suspects account can be proved or disproven. The photographs will allow for an interpretation and reconstruction of what happened.
A. Size of blood splatter 1. Recorded with micro scales visible in
photographs. 2. The smaller the drop the faster the movement of
the blood.

DIRECTIONALITY OF BLOOD SPATTER When a droplet of blood strikes a surface
perpendicular (90 degrees) the resulting bloodstain will be circular.That being the length and width of the stain will be equal.
Blood that strikes a surface at an angle less than 90 degrees will be elongated or have a tear drop shape.Directionality is usually obvious as the pointed end of the bloodstain ( tail ) will alwayspoint in the direction of travel.
![Page 44: Unit 6 serology](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051317/56816103550346895dd04637/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

BLOOD TESTS TO IDENTIFY BLOOD PRODUCTS
A. Luminol- Used if a high-intensity light beam does not reveal blood at a crime scene after it has been cleaned. 1. Luminol is a reagent that makes blood identifiable. 2. Luminol is sprayed in a dark room to reveal drops of blood. 3. Turns a fluorescent blue glow when it comes in contact with
blood. 4. Reacts with the iron that is found in the hemoglobin of
blood. 5. Glow will last 30 seconds and must be documented with a

BLOOD TESTS TO IDENTIFY BLOOD PRODUCTS
B. Hydrogen peroxide- A strong oxidizing agent. 1. The heme in hemoglobin of RBC breaks down the peroxide. 2. This reaction caused the production of oxygen that causes the
stain to turn blue in color. 3. Often hydrogen peroxide is used with the Kastle- Meyer Test.
C. Kastle- Meyer Test (K-M Test)- A blood test that uses the chemical indicator called phenolphthalein to detect the presence of hemoglobin. 1. A blood sample is collected on a cotton-tipped swab and a drop of
phenolphthalein is added to the tip. 2. After a few seconds hydrogen peroxide is applied to the swab. 3. If the swab turns bright pink rapidly it is positive for blood. 4. After 30 seconds the swab will naturally turn pink as it oxidizes on
its own in the air.

SEMEN Semen and saliva are other body fluids which are
commonly found at crime scenes. We will be examining semen from a bull. First, examine
the live sperm in the microscope. Draw and describe what you see. How would a sperm count be made? How could a sperm count play a role in being evidence? (class or individual)
Using black light, examine the fabric to see if body fluid is present (in this case, bull semen). Describe the methods you used. Describe what you see.
How would this evidence be collected and sent back to the lab?
