A method for identifying an individual unit of a polymer of linked units, comprising:
- transiently exposing an individual unit of a polymer of linked units to an agent comprising electromagnetic radiation, wherein the individual unit is linked to a unit specific marker;
- generating a detectable FRET-independent electromagnetic radiation signal characteristic of said individual unit;
- detecting said signal;
- and
- distinguishing said signal from one or more signals generated from adjacent signal generating units of the polymer.
