Horseradish peroxidase

Description

Horseradish peroxidase readily combines with hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and the resultant [HRP-H₂O₂] complex can oxidize a wide variety of hydrogen donors.

Abbreviation: HRP

Application in HRR

HRP: Horseradish peroxidase (peroxidase from horseradish Type II, essentially salt-free, lyophilized powder, 150-250 units/mg solid); Sigma P8250, store at 4 °C.

Preparation of 500 U/mL stock solution (dissolved in MiR05):

1. Weigh 3.33 mg
2. Dissolve in 1 mL MiR05.
3. Aliquot 200 µL into 500 µL Eppendorf tubes.

The use of horseradish peroxidase type II in fluorometric measurement of peroxide production is recommended by Laszlo Tretter.
