Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an important enzyme used by granulocytes during phagocytic lysis of engulfed foreign particles. In normal tissues and in a variety of myeloproliferative disorders myeloid cells of both neutrophilic and eosinophilic types, at all stages of maturation, exhibit strong cytoplasmic reactivity for MPO. Erythroid precursors, megakaryocytes, lymphoid cells, mast cells, and plasma cells are nonreactive. MPO is not observed in epithelial tumors and sarcomas. MPO is positive in myeloid leukemias, but negative in lymphoid leukemias._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ Synthetic peptide corresponding to C-terminus of human myeloperoxidase protein._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ 0.1 ml rabbit monoclonal antibody purified by protein A/G in PBS/1% BSA buffer pH 7.6 with less than 0.1% sodium azide._x000D_ Disclaimer_x000D_ Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals._x000D_ Features and Benefits_x000D_ Evaluate our antibodies with complete peace of mind.
