A method of producing a molecularly-imprinted material comprises
synthesizing a peptide, oligosaccharide or oligonucleotide on a
disposable surface modified support to produce a support surface-attached
peptide, oligosaccharide or oligonucleotide, providing a selected monomer
mixture, contacting the monomer mixture with the support surface-attached
peptide, oligosaccharide or oligonucleotide, initiating polymerisation or
at least one crosslinking reaction, dissolving or degrading the support
surface-attached peptide, oligosaccharide or oligonucleotide and support,
and obtaining molecularly imprinted material.
