    Antibodies
    SentencesResources
    SARS-CoV-2 virus was labelled using first an anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody (Spike protein, Thermo Fischer) and then a secondary anti-rabbit Alexa 647 (Thermo Fisher).
    anti-SARS-CoV-2

    About SciScore

    SciScore is an automated tool that is designed to assist expert reviewers by finding and presenting formulaic information scattered throughout a paper in a standard, easy to digest format. SciScore checks for the presence and correctness of RRIDs (research resource identifiers), and for rigor criteria such as sex and investigator blinding. For details on the theoretical underpinning of rigor criteria and the tools shown here, including references cited, please follow this link.
