<p>The present invention relates to a method for amplifying and detecting nucleic acid sequences in a reaction cartridge comprising the following steps, (i) providing a sample comprising at least one nucleic acid molecule, (ii) in a first reaction chamber of the cartridge providing reagents for an amplification reaction, (iii) mixing the sample with the amplification reagents, (iv) amplifying the at least one nucleic acid in the first reaction chamber of the cartridge, (v) transferring at least parts of the amplification reaction into a second and third reaction chamber of the cartridge each comprising a probe set, wherein (a) each probe set consists of at least three probes, (b) each of the probes is specific for a nucleic acid sequence, (c) there are at least two probes in each set which carry an identical label, (d) each of the probes in a given probe set that carries an identical label has a melting temperature (T m ) which differs by more than 2°C from the other probe in said probe set with the same label, (e) wherein the probes carrying the identical label differ in melting temperature (T m ) in a way that they are distinguishable by melting point, (f) performing a melting point analysis in order to determine which of the probes has specifically bound a nucleic acid.</p> |
