Systems and methods for monitoring the amplification and dissociation behavior of dna molecules

Abstract

The present invention relates to systems and methods for monitoring the amplification of DNA molecules and the dissociation behavior of the DNA molecules. The present invention in one embodiment provides a system that includes a microfluidic channel comprising a PCR processing zone and an HRTm analysis zone; and an image sensor having a first image sensor region having a first field of view and a second image sensor region having a second field of view, wherein the second field of view is different than the first field of view, wherein at least a portion of the PCR processing zone is within the first field of view; and at least a portion of the HRTm analysis zone is within the second field of view.

1 . A system, comprising:
 a microfluidic channel comprising a PCR processing zone and an HRTm analysis zone; and   an image sensor having a first image sensor region having a first field of view and a second image sensor region having a second field of view, wherein the second field of view is different than the first field of view, wherein   at least a portion of the PCR processing zone is within the first field of view, and   at least a portion of the HRTm analysis zone is within the second field of view.
