The total number of spectra for each protein was compared between biospecimens. Scatter plots of the total number of spectra identified for the proteins identified in all three biospecimens were created in Scaffold. Due to the large number of spectra from albumin identified in the Pap test fluid and cervical swab, this protein was omitted from the graphs. Comparison of the spectral counts for the proteins identified in: a tumor tissue extract and Pap test fluid, b tumor tissue extract and cervical swab, and c Pap test fluid and cervical swab. The Pap test fluid and swab samples were more similar to each other than to the tumor tissue extract. Red circle indicates serum proteins with similar spectral counts in the Pap test fluid and cervical swab. CYK4, cytokeratin-4; CYK13, cytokeratin-13
