An Investigation of the Effect of Leather on Blood Stains

Öz

Sixty five bloodstains prepared on tanned leather of unknown origin has been examined for chemical, immunological and serological tests within one and half month of their preparation. The chemical and species origin tests were positive in all the samples. The ABO (H) antigens detection could be better performed by absorplion elution method than the absorption- inhibition technique employed in the present investigation. Tannin present in the leather has been observed to effect the results of bloodstains to the minirnwn.
