Identifying mislabeled and contaminated DNA methylation microarray data: an extended quality control toolset with examples from GEO

Background Mislabeled, contaminated or poorly performing samples can threaten power in methylation microarray analyses or even result in spurious associations. We describe a set of quality checks for the popular Illumina 450K and EPIC microarrays to identify problematic samples and demonstrate their...
