Techniques are provided for generating an array-specific range of Tm values to be used for calling a sample in a given array positive or negative for a target nucleic acid sequence. A sample well in an array is provided with a control sample containing a control nucleic acid sequence. The control sample is amplified by thermal cycling the sample well. A Tm value for the control sample is identified and compared to an expected Tm value for the control nucleic acid sequence to calculate a relationship between the identified control Tm value and the expected control Tm value. By applying this relationship to an expected Tm value for a target nucleic acid sequence, an array-specific range of Tm values for the target nucleic acid sequence is generated and can be used for calling an experimental sample in the same array positive or negative for the target nucleic acid sequence.

Abrégé

The present disclosure relates to methods and systems suitable for simultaneously amplifying a number of potential targets and then performing a melt detection based on whether or not any amplification is detected for any target nucleic acid(s), wherein the melt parameters are limited by the melt temperature range characteristic for the target nucleic acid(s) for which amplification is detected. This invention retains the resolution achieved by nucleic acid melts with a slow, steady ramp rate between the annealing and denaturation temperatures, but does so faster by using faster ramp rates at temperatures where no melt signature is expected from the reaction, and slower at temperatures where a melt signature is expected from the reaction.
