| | Forensic Serology |
| | While such procedures improve the scope of detection, it is not yet possible to identify an individual by his blood as it is by his fingerprints. | | | The investigation of blood at a crime scene can be broadly divided into a biological approach (serology) and a physics approach (blood splatter or bloodstain pattern interpretation). | | | Blood continues to play an important part in forensic investigations, and the discovery of new antibodies has enabled blood grouping techniques to be further refined. |

| | The primary objective is to identify and characterize the physiological material found on the evidence and subsequently make a comparison of the material to known standards from a particular individual or individuals. | | | The science of forensic serology is based upon the fact that certain polymorphic, genetically inherited characteristics that are present in an individual's blood can also be found in certain physiological fluids, such as blood, semen, vaginal secretions and saliva. | | | Forensic serology has been revolutionized by DNA testing, which is based upon the polymorphic segments found in DNA. |

| | Les Irwig and colleagues from Sydney [1] searched the literature for full papers and abstracts which examined the sensitivity and specificity of laboratory serology tests for the bacterium - but did not include near-patient blood tests. | | | For instance, only eight of the 21 studies excluded patients recently treated with antibiotics (which can affect culture, but not serology tests because antibodies in the blood remain elevated for up to six months), and only three stated specifically that the study was appropriately blinded. | | | Most were based on European subjects and predominantly used culture (with histology and urease testing) as the reference method. |

| | A higher titer correlates with active clinical PHF, but serology is most useful when combined with other supporting information. | | | There is no serological cross-reaction between Ehrlichieae, Rickettsieae, and Chlamydieae with use of the IFA method. | | | However, this disease is difficult to diagnose serologically due to the fact that a horse may become infected up to 14 days prior to the onset of clinical signs, making the "acute" sample more of a convalescent sample. |

| | Titers have usually developed by the time abortion occurs, so consider comparing samples from clinically affected vs unaffected animals to aid in interpretation. | | | Interpretation requires vaccination history. Vaccine antibody titers may be 1:400 to 1:800. In dogs, if icterohaemorrhagiae and canicola both react, it is probably vaccination. Dogs infected with grippotyphosa may have titers of 1:200 to 1:800. In cattle with reproductive failure associated with hardjo, hardjo antibody titers may be 1:100 to 1:200. | | | The CF is a highly specific test for detecting ant-APP antibodies. |
