What is Myeloperoxidase MPO Test?

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an enzyme produced by white blood cells that aids in the fight against microbial infections. During inflammation, its levels rise. MPO kills pathogens by producing a chemical compound known as hypochlorous acid. Not only is hypochlorous acid produced in the body to kill pathogens, but it is also used as a disinfectant on a daily basis. Hypochlorous acid, for example, is a key component of bleach disinfectant. MPO levels rise during infection and inflammation.

This is because white blood cells produce a large amount of MPO in order to fight pathogens. The Myeloperoxidase Blood Test aids in determining MPO levels in the blood. It is used to determine the extent of infection and inflammation.
