A modified lymphocytolysis inhibition test revealed that specific results may be attained in 50-60% of examinations of blood, spermatic, and salivary spots if highly specific HLA sera are used. HLA antigens were found to be present in spermatic and salivary spots for a year (follow-up period). Recommendations were developed for practical use of HLA antigens in examinations of blood, spermatic, and salivary spots by lymphocytolysis inhibition test in forensic medical expert evaluation.

This study has led to the discovery of a new variant of erythrocytic Gd, which was named "Kremenchug" from the origin of the patient. This new Gd, has a very low Km for G-6-P, and has a greater affinity for 2-deoxyglucose-6-phosphate.

Kinetic and electrophoretic properties of 230--300 fold purified preparations of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) from red cells of donors and patients with acute drug hemolytic anemia due to G6PD deficiency were studied. A new abnormal variant of G6PD isolated from red cell of a patient with acute drug hemolytic anemia, which was not described in literature, has been discovered. The abnormal enzyme differs from the normal by decreased Michaelis constant for glucose-6-phosphate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP), by increased utilization of analogues of substrates--2-deoxy-glucose-6-phosphate and particularly deamino-NADP, by low thermal stability, by the character of pH-dependence, by the appearance of a single band of G6PD activity in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
