'''Experimental workflows''' is part of the Nanopore Wiki learning path. Nanopore experiments require coordinated control of sample quality, buffer chemistry, pore or membrane state, electrical recording, metadata, and analysis.


== Core concepts ==
* A useful SOP includes acceptance criteria and troubleshooting logic, not only steps.
* Blank controls and pre-sample baselines are essential for interpreting events.
* Metadata must record voltage, buffer, pore, sample, bandwidth, sampling rate, and time points.
* Real-time judgement prevents poor traces from becoming misleading datasets.


== Standard workflow ==
{| class="wikitable np-knowledge-table"
! Step
! Description
|-
| 1
| Define the target, question, pore system, and platform.
|-
| 2
| Prepare sample, buffer, blank controls, and recording setup.
|-
| 3
| Verify baseline and pore state before adding sample.
|-
| 4
| Record data while monitoring event frequency, drift, and pore stability.
|-
| 5
| Save raw data, metadata, scripts, and failure notes.
|}


== Typical applications ==
* Custom nanopore sensing.
* Sequencing library preparation and run monitoring.
* Training new laboratory members.


== Common pitfalls ==
* Running samples without blank baselines.
* Changing buffer or voltage without documenting it.
* Keeping only successful traces and discarding failure context.
