Background of Myeloperoxidase/MPO
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a mammalian phagocyte hemoprotein thought to primarily mediate host defense reactions. It is abundantly expressed in neutrophils and secreted during their activation. Myeloperoxidase is part of the host defense system of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes, responsible for microbicidal activity against a wide range of organisms. It is located in the nucleus as well as in the cytoplasm. Intranuclear MPO may help to protect DNA against damage resulting from oxygen radicals produced during myeloid cell maturation and function.

Question
Q: What is the optimal O.D. value for Myeloperoxidase ELISA kit? I performed your Myeloperoxidase ELISA on serum samples. For my positive control, I received an O.D. value of 0.826, while my negative control received a value of 0.136. I obtained both of these controls from the ELISA kit, where your kit's typical data shows O.D. values much higher than my positive control and your background is lower. My samples O.D. values are around 0.225 and the highest is only 0.357. can I consider these samples contain Myeloperoxidase even though the O.D. values are not very high?

Answer
A: The absolute O.D. values may change according to incubation time. The more you incubate the higher the O.D. values are going to be. an important assessment should be is whether your sample O.D. values are statistically significantly higher than your blank values. considering your assay, you could extend your development time in the substrate incubation step to obtain higher O.D. values, as long as your negative controls' O.D. values are not increasing faster in relation to your positive controls. normally, a sample with O.D. value 2 standard deviations higher than your negative controls can be considered positive. We calculate the sensitivity of this ELISA kit by converting cutoff O.D. value, calculated as the average of 20 negative controls plus 2 standard deviations of the 20 negative controls, into a concentration. in other words, when we claim this Myeloperoxidase ELISA kit to have sensitivity of 10pg/ml, that means the minimum amount of Myeloperoxidase that can be declared/interpreted as positive by the above standard is 10pg/ml.

Question
Our customer would like to know if this product can use tissue samples? https://www.bosterbio.com/mouse-mpo-picokine-trade-elisa-kit-ek0943-boster.html

Answer
EK0943 hasn't been tested for any tissues. Endogenous biotin in tissue homogenates might introduce false positive signal. We recommend the customer run a pilot test as described below to confirm the affect of endogeous biotin first. Add tissue homogenates into the wells and then add ABC abd TMB without adding any biotinylated detection antibody to see if any signal will be observed. If no signal is produced, the customer can work on the tissue sample by using the kit.

Question
Is EK0943 suitable for lung fluid samples?
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-10-01
Answer
For the Mouse MPO/Myeloperoxidase ELISA Kit PicoKine™ (EK0943), we have not tested lung fluid samples with this kit, so we cannot guarantee that it would work. In theory the ELISA kit will work for all sample types if the target protein is present at a level that falls within the linear range of the ELISA kit detection range. We guarantee the kit to work on the sample types that we have tested. For sample types that we have not tested for, we suggest to run pilot experiments to decide the optimal sample dilution.

Question
Q: if the enzyme conjugated Myeloperoxidase antibodies are mixed with the substrate, will that change the substrate into the enzymatic reaction product? Or the enzyme function is only activated when the antibody is attached with the Myeloperoxidase antigen?
Verified Customer

Asked: 2019-08-09
Answer
A: The enzyme is always active. Avoid contaminating the substrate with enzyme prior to the incubation otherwise it compromises the assay with false positive signal.

Question
Q: how many samples can be assayed in a Picokine® ELISA Kit?
S. Collins
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-12-16
Answer
A: The Picokine® ELISA Kits will generally run a 7-point standard curve, non-specific binding wells, and 39 samples in duplicate. this may might differ by kit so please refer to each datasheet for details.

Question
Q: can you tell me how to prepare cell lysates prepared for use in Picokine® ELISA kits?
T. Baker
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-11-29
Answer
A: for those Picokine® ELISAs where cell or tissue lysate is a validated sample type, sample preparation instructions for lysate can be found in the product insert. Components in lysate and lysis buffer may affect immunoreactivity, so if lysate is not a validated sample type, care must be taken in sample preparation and validation.

Question
Q: can I use citrate plasma as samples in Mouse Myeloperoxidase Picokine® ELISA Kit (Catalog # EK0943)?
M. Garcia
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-02-23
Answer
A: Chelating agents such as EDTA, Heparin and Citrate can sequester metal ions from the functional domain of Myeloperoxidase causing degradation of its protein structure. Myeloperoxidase may be denatured as a result and may compromise the assay's measurements. The chilating sites could also be too close to the epitopes a must for detection and block the antigen antibody reaction. We have tested the Myeloperoxidase ELISA, treating samples with various anticoagulants and decided that heparin or EDTA can be used for treatment of blood/plasma samples. Do not use other anticoagulents when collecting samples.

Question
Q: how long can samples (cell cultures, serum, and plasma) be stored and still be stable for measurement Myeloperoxidase using the EK0943 Mouse Myeloperoxidase Picokine® ELISA Kit?
Verified Customer

Asked: 2017-03-26
Answer
A: Boster Bio does not assess sample stability. Variations in sample collection, processing, and storage may affect the stabilityof samples. It is recommend to assay sample immediately after collection when possible, or aliquot into single use volumes and store samples frozen. limit repetitive freeze-thaw cycles with the stored samples to prevent protein degradation.
