Human urine is frequently analysed in cases of doping or drug consumption. In this connection the necessity of an adequate urine identification arises. Apart from DNA-polymorphisms it exists a comprehensive repertoire of classic serological methods for this purpose. Human urine samples have been typed successfully in the following blood group systems: antigens of the erythrocytes' membrane (AB0-, Lewis-system), protein polymorphisms (Gc, transferrin, alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein) and enzyme polymorphisms (GPT). The results of the different studies are presented and completed by our own experiences with the Gc-system. In addition it is reported about our investigations concerning PGM1-subtyping of human urine.
