PerlPrimer: cross-platform, graphical primer design for standard, bisulphite and real-time PCR
Open accessAbstract
Summary: PerlPrimer is a cross-platform graphical user interface application for the design of primers for standard, bisulphite and real-time PCR, and sequencing. The program incorporates highly accurate melting-temperature and primer–dimer prediction algorithms with powerful tools such as sequence retrieval from Ensembl and the ability to BLAST search primer pairs. It aims to automate and simplify the process of primer design. Availability: Open-source and freely available from http://perlprimer.sourceforge.net

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
