Abstract: A method of performing experiments on samples may include receiving criteria defining a starting state for performing an experiment in a system including a scientific instrument; determining whether the starting state is established in the system; and, responsive to the starting state being established, allowing the experiment, that analyzes a sample using the scientific instrument, to proceed. Determining whether the starting state is established may include automated monitoring of at least one parameter for at least one data channel, and determining whether all such parameters simultaneously meet associated conditions of the criteria for specified time periods. The method may include automatically monitoring the system and re-establishing the starting state prior to performing each of one or more subsequent experiments. The method may include automatically monitoring and establishing a second starting state prior to performing each of one or more additional experiments.
