Consequences of blood engorgement on mosquito identification per body part. LSVs from MS spectra of heads, legs and thoraxes of Ae. aegypti (Bora) (a) and An. coluzzii (Dkr) (b), kinetically collected after human blood engorgement, were compared. Collection time points are distinguished by color code, as indicated in the right panel. Dashed line represents the threshold values (LSV ≥ 1.8), for relevant identification. All samples were homogenized using TL mode
