Abstract
The invention generally relates to methods for quantifying an amount of enzyme molecules. Systems and methods of the invention are provided for measuring an amount of target by forming a plurality of fluid partitions, a subset of which include the target, performing an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in the subset, and detecting the number of partitions in the subset. The amount of target can be determined based on the detected number.

1-24. (canceled)
A method for identifying components of a chemical reaction, the method comprising:
- forming a plurality of fluid partitions each comprising a particle that comprises a marker and a fluorescently labeled binder specific to the marker;
- incubating the fluid partitions, wherein the fluorescently labeled binder binds to the particle comprising the marker;
- and
- determining an amount of a localized signal from the labeled binder on the particle in the fluid partitions.
