1-20. (canceled)
A method for analyzing an amplification reaction product, the method comprising:
- providing a plurality of aqueous droplets separated by an oil in a reservoir of a fluidic device, wherein one or more of the droplets comprise nucleic acid molecules and reagents for an amplification reaction;
- conducting the nucleic acid amplification reaction simultaneously in the droplets while the droplets are in the reservoir;
- and
- detecting amplification product in the droplets via imaging.
