Provenance plays an important role for the documentation of research data. Born-digital documentation simplifies the acquisition of provenance information. In contrast to computational workflows, wet-lab experiments rely on manually created documentation based on prior established research protocols. While deviation from such protocols can easily be described using standard provenance models, the evolution of such protocols is often not included. Consequently, this prevents the effective use of provenance models derived from experiments, following revised protocols. In this article, we introduce the three dimensions of provenance for wet-lab in-vitro experiment and discuss how ontologies can be utilized for the unambiguous representation. Based on a use case from a cell-biological electrical stimulation experiment, we describe the three dimensions and provide a model that closes the described gap between research documentation's provenance models resulting from different protocol versions.
