Determination of Significance:
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a white blood cell enzyme secreted by activated neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages, mainly present in the phenylalanine blue granules of neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages. When white blood cells are activated, MPO is released into phagocytic vesicles and plasma, inducing oxidative stress and tissue damage under specific conditions, and is a biomarker of systemic inflammation and oxidative stress.
Measurement Principle:
MPO catalyzes the decomposition of H2O2, while oxidizing ortho anisidine to form a colored substance. There is a characteristic absorption peak at 460nm, and the color depth is linearly related to the activity of MPO.
Self Provided:
Spectrophotometer, desk centrifuge, transferpettor, 1 mL glass cuvette, mortar/homogenizer/cell ultrasonic disruptor, ice and distilled water.
