Myeloperoxidase (human), ELISA kit

• Sensitive – detect as little as 19 pg/ml MPO
• Reliable – excellent reproducibility and parallelism
• Convenient – ready-to-use liquid color-coded reagents reduce error and save time in the lab
• Higher throughput – results for up to 39 samples in duplicate in just 3 hours

The Myeloperoxidase (human), EIA kit is a colorimetric immunometric enzyme immunoassay kit with results in 3 hours. This sensitive kit lets you quantitate as little as 19 pg/mL MPO in a wide variety of sample matrices that have been validated in-house. Convenient ready-to-use liquid color-coded reagents reduce error and save time in the lab.

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is synthesized as a single chain precursor, which is then processed into a tetramer consisting of 2 light chains and 2 heavy chains. In response to microbial invasion, MPO is released from the cytoplasmic granules of neutrophils into the extracellular space and phagosome, where it generates hypohalous acids that have a strong microbicidal effect. Myeloperoxidase can be used as a marker of airway inflammation caused either by disease, such as asthma, or by environmental irritants.
