Determinations of sodium and potassium concentrations in blood samples performed with inductive coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry. Electron density values of blood samples were determined via ZXCOM. Statistical analyses were performed for electron densities and Na/K ratio including Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality tests, Spearman's rank correlation test and Mann-Whitney U test. It was found that the electron densities significantly differ between control and breast cancer groups. In addition, statistically significant positive correlation was found between the electron density and Na/K ratios in breast cancer group.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBlood samplesBreast cancerNa/K ratioElectron densityICP-AESArticle31467367810.1007/s10534-018-0118-2298557462-s2.0-85047899343Q1WOS:000440104700018Q2
