Arguments
- x
a string or character vector to search for. input a character vector if searching for multiple terms. if empty, will return all available organisms.
- platforms
pre-defined platform information character variable.
- contain_all
if TRUE, results contain all search terms will be returned. if FALSE, results contain any of the given term will be returned.
