Using logistics regression on LIBS spectra of plasma samples collected pre- and postCovid-19 pandemic from donors known to have developed various levels of antibodies to the SARS-Cov-2 virus, we show that relying on the levels of Na, K, and Mg together is more efficient at differentiating the two types of plasma samples than any single blood alone.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess[No Keyword Available]ArticleQ2Q2151446459WOS:00117020780000238223176
