Abstract

Presented herein are methods and compositions for enhancing utilization of surface primers during the surface amplification process. The methods are useful for surface amplification at improved densities. The methods and compositions provided herein enable creation of clusters which are brighter, but at the same densities as currently achieved using standard cluster amplification.
