A Comprehensive Microbiome Data Processing Pipeline

Provides tools for cleaning, processing, and preparing microbiome sequencing data (e.g., 16S rRNA) for downstream analysis. Supports CSV, TXT, and Excel file formats. The main function, ezclean(), automates microbiome data transformation, including format validation, transposition, numeric conversion, and metadata integration. It also handles taxonomic levels efficiently, resolves duplicated taxa entries, and outputs a well-structured, analysis-ready dataset. The companion functions ezstat() run statistical tests and summarize results, while ezviz() produces publication-ready visualizations.

mbX

mbX is an R package that provides functions for cleaning, processing, and visualizing microbiome sequencing data. The package includes:

• ezclean(): Cleans and merges microbiome and metadata files (supports CSV, TXT, and 'Excel' formats).
• ezviz(): Generates publication-ready visualizations using the cleaned data from ezclean().

Installation
