Abstract
A method for preparation of a molecular recognition element comprising the steps of binding a template to a surface of a carrier material, providing a recognition material to the surface of the carrier material, initiating polymerization of the recognition material on the surface of the carrier material, stopping the polymerization of the recognition material on the surface of the carrier material, and releasing the template from the surface of the carrier material and the polymerized recognition material. The method is characterized as an aim size of individual imprints is predefined, and the polymerization of the recognition material on the surface of the carrier material is stopped when a size of individual imprints of the polymerized recognition material essentially equals the predefined aim size. This method is readily applicable for preparation of a molecular recognition element useful as a drug, catalyst, competitive affinity ligand inhibitor, competitor, agonist, antagonist or diagnostic agent.
