Preferred Label : Methylation Beta Value;
NCIt synonyms : Beta Value; DNA Methylation Beta Value;
NCIt definition : An estimate for the level of DNA methylation in a set of samples that is calculated
as the ratio of average signal intensities for methylated alleles (M) divided by the
average signal intensities of M plus unmethylated alleles (U), such that beta (b)
equals M/(M U). Beta values must fall between zero and one.;
NCIt note : If necessary, an offset factor (a), may be used; such that beta (b) equals M/(M U
a).;
