The most common is EPNS (Electro Plated Nickel Silver) but many other symbols are used: 1  EPBM (Electro Plated Britannia Metal). 2  EPCA (Electro Plated Copper Alloy). 3  ESM (Electro Plated Silver Mounts).he most common is EPNS (Electro Plated Nickel Silver) but many other symbols are used: 1  EPBM (Electro Plated Britannia Metal). 2  EPCA (Electro Plated Copper Alloy). 3  ESM (Electro Plated Silver Mounts).
Erythropoietin (pronounced, ah-rith-ro-poy-tin, and abbreviated, EPO) is a relatively recent entry into the deceitful pursuit of glory.fter being released into the blood stream it binds with receptors in the bone marrow, where it stimulates the production of red blood cells (erythrocytes).
