What does this test Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Stain Test identify?

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Stain Test

The Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Stain Test is a laboratory test that helps identify certain types of white blood cells based on the presence of the enzyme myeloperoxidase. This test is commonly used to differentiate between granulocytic cells (neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils) and mononuclear cells (lymphocytes and monocytes).

Myeloperoxidase is an enzyme found in the azurophilic granules of neutrophils and eosinophils. When these cells are exposed to a specific stain that reacts with myeloperoxidase, they will appear as dark brown or black granules under a microscope. This staining pattern is characteristic of granulocytic cells.

By performing the MPO Stain Test, healthcare providers can determine whether an individual has an increased number of granulocytic cells in their blood. This information can be helpful in diagnosing certain conditions such as infections, inflammatory diseases, and leukemia. Additionally, the MPO Stain Test can also be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment in patients with these conditions.

Why is this test Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Stain Test taken?

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) Stain Test is taken to help diagnose and monitor certain types of blood disorders, such as leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, and myeloproliferative neoplasms. MPO is an enzyme that is found in certain types of white blood cells, particularly in granulocytes and monocytes.

The test is used to detect the presence of MPO in blood or bone marrow samples. Elevated levels of MPO can indicate an abnormal increase in white blood cells, which may be a sign of an underlying blood disorder. The test results can help healthcare providers make a diagnosis and determine the appropriate treatment plan for the patient.
