INCREASED SENSITIVITY OF MN TYPING FOR BLOODSTAINS USING A LOW IONIC STRENGTH SOLUTION / 中国法医学杂志

The absorption-elution test using low ionic strength solution (LISS) has been compared with the test using normal saline in MN typing of 258 bloodstain samples stored 1 to 6 years. The accuracy rate was 94.57％ using LISS method. The present study indicated that the LISS method is more sensitive than tests carried out in normal saline.
