Abstract
An embodiment of a method for generating a population of amplified concatamer products is described that comprises amplifying a template nucleic acid molecule using a first nucleic acid primer immobilized on a bead substrate and a second nucleic acid primer in solution to generate a population of substantially identical copies of the template nucleic acid molecule immobilized on the bead substrate; and amplifying the population of substantially identical copies of the template nucleic acid molecule using a concatamer primer that comprises a first region complementary to an end region of the population of substantially identical copies of the template nucleic acid molecule and a second region to generate a population of immobilized concatamer products of the substantially identical copies of the template nucleic acid molecule.
