RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To examine the effect of blood anticoagulation type on the myeloperoxidase (MPO) concentration. DESIGN AND METHODS: MPO was measured in EDTA-plasma and matched heparin-plasma and serum samples collected from healthy volunteers. RESULTS: MPO concentrations in heparin-plasma and serum were higher than in EDTA-plasma (both P<0.001). MPO in EDTA-plasma was not significantly correlated with MPO in either heparin-plasma or serum. CONCLUSIONS: For MPO measurements, EDTA-plasma is the preferred specimen as it appears unaffected by ex vivo release of MPO from leukocytes.
