Publication

Publication workbench

Build figures from one or many experiments: calibration curves, Randles–Ševčík plots, Tafel slopes, dose-response curves, box plots, and bar graphs.

A paper or report needs figures that combine many experiments: a calibration curve from twenty CVs, a Tafel plot from an LSV, a dose-response curve from a titration. The Publication Workbench is a separate window in Sensitify Studio for this step.

Each figure type has its own data editor, fit panel, and style inspector. The fit recomputes after every edit. Journal presets (Nature, IEEE, ACS, Presentation, and the Sensitify default) set fonts, colours, and frame style for the whole figure.

When to use it

Calibration curves with slope, R², LOD, LOQ, and inverse prediction for QC samples.
Randles–Ševčík analysis: diffusion coefficient D in cm²/s with proper unit conversion and propagated standard error.
Tafel-slope extraction with two live branch fits and adjustable fit windows.
Dose-response (4-PL) fits with EC₅₀ / IC₅₀ and per-parameter locks for known bottoms or saturating tops.
Group comparisons via box plots or bar graphs with significance brackets.

How it works

Start an analysis from the welcome grid, the header buttons, or by right-clicking a selection in the experiment library. The left rail becomes a data table with columns for include, label, X, and Y. Values come from the selected experiments or from manual entry, pasted from the clipboard or imported from a CSV file.

Plot and table are linked. Clicking a point highlights its row in the table; right-clicking a point and choosing Exclude from fit re-runs the fit without it. Undo is available inside each mode.

The active preset sets axis fonts, colours, and frame style for every trace. The current configuration can be saved as a named preset and reloaded later.

Parameters

Mode

Typical: Calibration

Calibration, Randles–Ševčík, Tafel, dose-response, box plot, or bar graph. Each mode has its own data editor, fit panel, and inspector.

Source

Typical: From experiments

From experiments (selected in the library) or manual entry (pasted, CSV, or TSV). The two are kept separately, so switching between them does not lose what you typed.

Per-mode parameters

Calibration exposes a concentration unit picker; Randles–Ševčík exposes n, A, C, T spinboxes; Tafel exposes anodic and cathodic fit-window edges; dose-response exposes per-parameter locks and a log-X toggle; box plot exposes notched and jittered toggles.

Publication preset

Typical: Nature

Five built-in presets (None, Nature, IEEE, ACS, Presentation) plus saved presets of your own. Switching changes the styling of every trace without touching the data.

Example

Build a calibration curve from yesterday's CV runs

In Sensitify Studio, click the Workbench button on the tab-bar row above the plot.
In the library, Cmd/Ctrl-click the five experiments cv_5µM to cv_25µM. Right-click and choose Calibrate from selection.
The left rail switches to the calibration editor with one row per experiment. Type the concentrations into the Conc column; the Signal column auto-fills from the experiments' peak currents.
The fit panel reports slope 0.50 µA/µM, R² 0.999, and LOD 0.16 µM, and a 95 % confidence band is drawn around the fit line.
Type 35 in the Predict field to back-calculate the concentration of a 35 µA sample, with its prediction interval.
Pick the Nature preset, click Export, save as PDF.

Result. A calibration curve in the Nature preset with slope, R², LOD, and the back-calculated concentration.

In Sensitify Studio

The Publication Workbench opens from the Workbench button on Studio's tab-bar row, above the plot. Studio stays running behind it. The header has the workspace and preset selectors and the Export and Report buttons.
