Abstract
The invention relates to a method for tracking the amplification of a sequence of nucleotides in a sample (). The sample is placed between a light source () and an image sensor (). Under the effect of amplification reagents, mixed with the sample, a nucleotide sequence, called the target sequence, is replicated iteratively, amplifying the target sequence. The method includes the acquisition of an image representative of the formation of a precipitate in the sample under the effect of the amplification, on the basis of which an image of interest is formed. The application of a statistical indicator to the image of interest allows an indicator of the amplification of the target sequence to be determined.
