Abstract: A method for carrying out nucleic acid amplification, includes providing a reaction chamber, accommodating an array of nucleic acid probes at respective locations, for hybridizing to respective target nucleic acids; and introducing a solution into the reaction chamber, wherein the solution contains primers, capable of binding to target nucleic acids, nucleotides, nucleic acid extending enzymes and a sample including nucleic acids. The a structure of the nucleic acid probes and of the primers so that a hybridization temperature of the probes is higher than an annealing temperature of the primers, whereby hybridization and annealing take place in respective separate temperature ranges.

Abstract: A method for carrying out nucleic acid amplification, includes providing a reaction chamber (31), accommodating an array (36) of nucleic acid probes (37) at respective locations; for hybridizing to respective target nucleic acids; and introducing a solution (50) into the reaction chamber (31), wherein the solution (50) contains primers, capable of binding to target nucleic acids, nucleotides, nucleic acid extending enzymes and a sample including nucleic acids. The structure of the nucleic acid probes (37) and of the primers is selected so that a hybridization temperature (TH) of the probes (37) is higher than an annealing temperature (TA) of the primers, whereby hybridization and annealing take place in respective separate (non-overlapping) temperature ranges (RH, RA).
