It's a common "experiment" run in high school science classes. It can be done with very little equipment (just a disposable lancet to prick the skin, and a disposable card to give you the results), and lends itself to interesting lessons on genetics, antibodies, etc.

Dangerous experiment. Must have found at least a few illegitimate children, if it is done routinely.
