Abstract

The present invention is directed to method for analyzing multiple nucleic acid molecules of interest comprising in the steps of (i) providing a plurality of beads, characterized in that each bead comprises at least two sequence specific amplification primers, further characterized in that at least one of the primers is bound to the bead via a cleavable linker, (ii) capturing the nucleic acid molecules of interest from a sample, (iii) clonally isolating the plurality of beads, (iv) cleaving the at least one primer, (v) clonally amplifying the nucleic acid thereby creating multiple amplification products, and (vi) analyzing the amplification products.
