We describe a scheme for biomolecule enumeration by converting nanometer-scale specific molecular recognition events mediated by rolling-circle amplification to fluorescent micrometer-sized DNA molecules amenable to discrete optical detection. Our amplified single-molecule detection (SMD) approach preserves the discrete nature of the molecular population, allowing multiplex detection and highly precise quantification of molecules over a dynamic range of seven orders of magnitude. We apply the method for sensitive detection and quantification of the bacterial pathogen Vibrio cholerae.
