plasma convalescent; plasma sanguin convalescent : Les désignations «plasma convalescent» et «plasma sanguin convalescent» sont inexactes, car elles laissent entendre que c'est le plasma «qui se rétablit», alors qu'il s'agit en réalité du plasma d'une personne convalescente. Pour cette raison, leur emploi est déconseillé. 2, record 1, French, - plasma%20de%20convalescent

plasma de convaleciente; plasma convaleciente: La Fundación del Español Urgente (Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que en la expresión "plasma de convaleciente" [...] no es adecuado omitir la preposición "de". [...] La expresión "plasma de convaleciente" no es más que una combinación descriptiva que alude a la parte líquida de la sangre (el plasma) de una persona que ha superado una enfermedad (el convaleciente). Por ello, resulta inapropiado aplicar esta última voz como adjetivo al propio plasma ["plasma convaleciente"], pues con ello se diría que es el líquido el que se ha recuperado. 2, record 1, Spanish, - plasma%20de%20convaleciente
