1. A method for sequencing a nucleic acid, said method comprising the steps of:

  • a) immobilizing in an optionally sealed microreactor a single target nucleic acid or a plurality of copies of the target nucleic acid;

    b) introducing to the microreactor a mixture in solution phase comprising a nucleic acid replicating catalyst, and a single species of nucleotide comprising a first base and a first label that is substantially non-fluorescent until after incorporation of said nucleotide into a nucleic acid based on complementarity to said target nucleic acid;

    c) allowing template-dependent replication of said target nucleic acid or the plurality of copies of said target nucleic acid; and

    d) sequencing said target nucleic acid by detecting incorporation of said nucleotide during template-dependent replication by detecting fluorescence emission resulting from said first label.
