Methods, kits and systems are disclosed for analyzing one or more molecules in a sample. Analyzing the one or more molecules may comprise quantitation of the one or more molecules. Individual molecules may quantitated by PCR, arrays, beads, emulsions, droplets, or sequencing. Quantitation of individual molecules may further comprise stochastic labeling of the one or more molecules with a plurality of oligonucleotide tags to produce one or more stochastically labeled molecules. The methods may further comprise amplifying, sequencing, detecting, and/or quantifying the stochastically labeled molecules. The molecules may be DNA, RNA and/or proteins.

A method of determining one or more target nucleic acids in cells includes the steps of: delivering one or more probes into the cells, each of the one or more probes being capable of binding with corresponding target nucleic acid present in the cells to form a double-stranded sequence; inserting an array of functionalized nanoneedles into the cells to bind with the double-stranded sequence; and hybridizing the bound double-stranded sequence with a first and second DNA sequence to produce a hybridized product, the first and second DNA sequence being at least partially complementary to each other. A kit for determining a target nucleic acid in cells includes a first reagent comprising a probe for binding with the target nucleic acid to form a double-stranded sequence; and an array of functionalized nanoneedles comprising a protein for binding with the double-stranded sequence.
