Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to methods of imaging template hybridisation for estimating cluster numbers prior to solid phase amplification and sequencing. More particularly, an initial round of imaging is carried out at the single molecule template hybridisation stage which allows a general estimation of cluster numbers prior to clusters being formed. Amplification of the signal allows single molecule imaging to be carried out using standard sequencing imaging apparatus.
