#> Warning: `checkMeta()` was deprecated in micro4R 0.0.0.9000.
#> ℹ Please use `checkAll()` instead.
#> Warning: As least 1 NA or empty cell was detected in 1 sample(s) in your metadata object. This is not necessarily bad or wrong, but if you were not expecting this, check your metadata object again. Sample(s) Sample3 were detected to have NAs or empty cells.
