Stains on three items, a bottle, a man's shoe and a beer can, were revealed to be human blood, Group O. Methods of study characteristic of the immunohematology laboratory were utilized to perform the necessary tests for identification and blood grouping: Precipitin Tests in Agar with Anti‐Human Serum. Hemagglutination Tests for identification of iso‐agglutinins anti‐A and anti‐B, including an enzyme test (Ficin). Hemagglutination‐Inhibition Teste for identification of blood group O, using anti‐H ( Ulex europeus ) in addition to anti‐A and anti‐B.
