Mpo assay kit

Manufactured by Nanjing Jiancheng
Sourced in China

The MPO assay kit is a laboratory instrument designed to measure the activity of the enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) in biological samples. MPO is an important enzyme involved in the immune response and its levels can provide insights into various physiological and pathological conditions. The kit utilizes a colorimetric or fluorometric detection method to quantify MPO activity, allowing researchers to assess its role in different biological systems.

MPO activity was assayed according to the MPO assay kit manufacturer’s instructions (Jiancheng BioEngineering, Nanjing, China). Briefly, MPO is an enzyme found in granulocytes. We assessed MPO activity using a kinetic assay in which H2O2 is degraded by the MPO released from the samples of colon [25] (link). The change in absorbance at 460 nm was measured with a Life Science UV/Vis Spectrophotometer DU 530 (Beckman Coulter, USA). The data are presented as units per milligram of tissue, where 1 unit is equal to the amount of MPO required to degrade 1 µmol of H2O2 per minute at 25°C.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
