Thermo Scientific Pierce Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is purified horseradish peroxidase enzyme for use in activity assays and conjugation to antibodies for ELISA, Western blot and immunohistochemistry applications.


  • Purified form—lyophilized salt-free powder; ready to dissolve and use
  • High specific activity—typically greater than 300 units/mg (lot-specific value reported)
  • Compared to AP—HRP is smaller (40kDa) than alkaline phosphatase (AP; 140kDa) and has higher specific enzyme activity than both AP and beta-galactosidase (b-Gal)
  • Many options—numerous substrate solutions and assay techniques are available for HRP


This purified horseradish peroxidase (HRP) is supplied lyophilized as a salt-free powder for reconstitution and use in protein research methods


One unit catalyzes the production of 1 mg of purpurogallin from pyrogallol in 20 seconds at 20˚C and pH 6.0.


The main application for HRP in molecular biology and protein research is as a reporter system for immunoassays and other probe-based assay techniques such as ELISA, Western blotting, EMSA and Southern blotting. The enzyme is usually conjugated to specific secondary antibodies or streptavidin, and its activity is detected with a color-forming (or light-generating) substrate.


Ordering information: Store in original container protected from direct sunlight in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, but do not store above ?20?C.


Caution: For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
