The antigen has been isolated from primary granulocytes (1). The antibody reacts with neutrophil granulocytes and monocytes in blood and with precursors of granulocytes in the bone marrow. The antibody is useful as an aid for classification of neoplastic tissue, i.e. myeloblasts and immature myeloid cells of acute myelogenous leukemia, progranulocytic leukemia, monomyelocytic leukemia, erythroleukemia and myeloblastoma (2).

Specificity
The antibody reacts with human myeloperoxidase. In crossed immunoelectrophoresis using 12.5 µL antibody per cm2 gel area against 2 µL myeloperoxidase only one precipitate corresponding to myeloperoxidase appears. Staining: Specific staining for peroxidase. With 2 µL of human plasma, no precipitate appears. Staining: Coomassie Brilliant Blue.
In formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human tonsil, and when using a sensitive streptavidin-biotin-based visualization system, the antibody as expected labels only rare neutrophil granulocytes.
