  1. Actual allele frequencies obtained from individual genotyping of the 1st set of 60 case and 60 control samples were compared with the estimated allele frequencies of the 2nd set of 60 case and 60 control samples. Estimated allele frequencies were separately calculated using beta values obtained from the 500 k Sample Data Set, and from the individually genotyped samples on the 500 k array.
