Abstract
Absorption-inhibition procedures have been used for many years for determining the ABH antigens of dried blood and body fluid samples (Gaensslen, 1983). Although the absorption elution technique originally devised by Siracusa (1923) and refined by Kind (1960) is now used almost exclusively for ABH antigen typing of bloodstains, inhibition remains the method choice in many laboratories for determination of the soluble ABH substances in secretor body fluids and body fluid stains.
