Culture Center and a member of the medical school staff.
Dr. Herr and fellow researchers at U.Va., working under a Federal Bureau of Investigation grant, already have cloned an antibody that identifies semen.
He said that finding could be vital in proving that a rape has occurred in cases where semen but no sperm was left behind, such as when a man is infertile or has had a vasectomy.
Forensics experts with the FBI and Scotland Yard in England have begun working with Dr. Herr’s discovery and should be using it in acutal cases within a short time, the scientist said.
Dr. Herr believes his work eventually will become the standard for police departments. He said his test “is very specific and very accurate.”
The theory behind Dr. Herr’s test is based on genetic research.
Every human body produces antibodies, substances that identify foreign matter. Thousands of different anybodies are produced for various foreign matter that enters the body.
Dr. Herr has isolated the anitbody that identifies semen. He then developed a two-hour test that can be performed in police laboratories or hospital emergency rooms to detect the presence of semen.
Walker case delayed
NORFOLK — A judge has postponed the sentencing of convicted spy Arthur J. Walker until after the Oct. 28 trial of Walker’s brother, the alleged leader of an espionage ring made up of retired and active duty Navy men.
U.S. District Judge J. Calvitt Clarke Jr. tried Walker without a jury and on Aug. 9 found him guilty of seven counts of espionage. Walker faces maximum penalties of three life terms plus 40 years in prison and $40,000 in fines.
