SciScore for 10.1101/2022.04.22.22274160: (What is this?)
Please note, not all rigor criteria are appropriate for all manuscripts.
Table 1: Rigor
Ethics Field Sample Permit: Variants present in regional clinical specimens: The 7-d, centered, rolling average proportion of clinical specimens sequenced from California classified as Omicon BA.1* and BA.2* as a function of specimen collection data were acquired from GISAID3,4 on 21 April 2022. Sex as a biological variable not detected. Randomization not detected. Blinding not detected. Power Analysis not detected. Table 2: Resources
Software and Algorithms Sentences Resources Assays were developed in silico using Primer3Plus (https://primer3plus.com/) (Table S2). Primer3Plussuggested: (Primer3Plus, RRID:SCR_003081)Primers and probe sequences (Table 1) were screened for specificity in silico using NCBI BLAST, … SciScore for 10.1101/2022.04.22.22274160: (What is this?)
