Sex discrimination of blood stains by hormonal radioimmunoassey

ABSTRACT

Blood specimens of 10 healthy males and 10 healthy females were collected and prepared as fresh blood stain, one month old blood stain and 2 month old blood stain, then assayed for testosterone and progesterone hormone contents by radioimmunoassay. A forensic application was reported for the sex determination of these subjects whose blood strains were analyzed by radioimmunoassay to establish the sex origin of the fresh and dried old blood stain
