A mutation in the beta globin gene can lead to sickle cell disease.

Theoretical physicists analyzed the beta functions to determine the fixed points of the renormalization group.

Beta Centauri burned with a cold blue light above the southern plains, its brilliance a reminder that the massive star lies about 500 light years away and is the second brightest in the constellation of Centaurus.

Astronomers used precise photometry to monitor the eclipsing binary Beta Lyrae over several months.

During the decontamination process, the team isolated several beta emitters to prevent further contamination.

Before submission, she sent her draft to several beta readers to get honest feedback.

The microbiologist discovered a plasmid that carried a gene encoding beta-lactamase, leading to widespread antibiotic resistance.

The development team restricted access to the closed beta so they could gather detailed feedback from experienced testers.

Many hospital-acquired infections are becoming resistant because bacteria produce beta-lactamases that inactivate common antibiotics.

Researchers documented several beta errors in the clinical trial analysis, which could undermine the study's conclusions.
