Abstract
The myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) during phagocytosis was investigated using a pro-chemiluminescence probe tyrosine. The tyrosine dependent chemiluminescence (T-CL) appeared when PMNs was stimulated with opsonized zymosan (OZ) and enhanced by the addition of tyrosine.
This method can measure the released MPO activity in intact PMNs over time.
