1. A method of detecting a plurality of target sequences in a test sample comprising the steps of:
- a) amplifying said target sequences in said test sample to form amplified target sequences;
b) contacting a hybridization platform with said amplified target sequences wherein(i) said hybridization platform comprises at least two capture probes immobilized to a support material in a defined pattern,(ii) said at least two capture probes have distinct sequences, and(iii) each of said capture probes is labeled with at least one member of a signal generating system wherein said signal generating system generates a change in signal in a target dependent manner;
b) hybridizing at least two amplified target sequences to said hybridization platform to generate a change in signal at a site where said target sequence is hybridized; and
c) detecting a change in signal at said site as an indication of the presence of said target sequence in said test sample.
