How it works
A typical research & academic workflow in Aliquora
- 1
Define the experiment or study
Create a project for the experiment, characterization study, or course module. Add a description and assign team members or students who will be logging data.
- 2
Register samples flexibly
Log samples with whatever metadata applies to your study — material name, preparation date, concentration, instrument run ID. Aliquora's flexible sample fields don't lock you into a rigid schema.
- 3
Enter or import measurements
Students or researchers enter values manually, or upload a CSV from an instrument. Aliquora records who submitted each entry and when, creating a verifiable data record even in an unregulated setting.
- 4
Optional supervisor review
For supervised lab courses or studies requiring sign-off, enable the review step. Instructors or PI-level users can review submitted results, add comments, and approve before the dataset is considered final.
- 5
Export for analysis
Download the full dataset as a CSV for import into R, Python, Excel, or statistical software. The export includes all sample metadata, result values, and submitter information.
Frequently asked questions
- Is Aliquora flexible enough for method development work?
- Yes. You can define custom test types and freely update specification ranges as the method evolves. There's no rigid schema that locks you into a single workflow.
- Can students use Aliquora without seeing each other's data?
- Team membership and role-based permissions control who can view and edit which samples and results within a project. You can structure projects so each student or group only accesses their own work.
- Do we need to use the approval workflow?
- No. The review and approval step is optional. For exploratory research, you can leave samples in a results-entered state and export data without requiring a formal sign-off.
- Can we export data for use in R or Python?
- Yes. Any project's results can be exported as a CSV with all sample metadata and result values included, ready for import into your preferred analysis environment.
