1. A method of making an imprint composition capable of capturing a macromolecule of interest, comprising the steps of:
- (a) solidifying a fluidic matrix material capable of retaining shaped cavities when in a solid or semi-solid form in the presence of a template molecule that corresponds to a portion of the macromolecule, thereby yielding a solid or semi-solid matrix material having template molecules entrapped therein; and
(b) removing the template molecules from the solid or semi-solid matrix material, yielding an imprint composition capable of capturing the macromolecule.
