Selective reaction monitoring (SRM) is a mass spectrometry-based technique employed to accurately quantify analytes such as proteins. As schizophrenia presents disturbances in protein expression and their pathways, as previously observed by proteomic studies, SRM is a suitable tool to study this disease. This project aims to use SRM to quantify in a targeted fashion proteins associated to schizophrenia, allowing the identification of potential biomarkers for the disease. Here we will show the first steps of optimization of SRM technique.
