[ABO blood grouping of crushed hair sample using immunohistochemical method with a mesh pack].

Abstract

An elution technique for ABO blood grouping from hair samples is in wide use. However, difficulties may be encountered when identifying the ABO blood grouping using monoclonal antibody. In the present study, we have shown excellent results in ABO blood grouping from crushed hair samples using an improved immunohistochemical technique with a mesh pack.
