Biomolecular embossing.
The replica molding and embossing of DNA texture has been achieved using a conventional polyurethane mold. The final process requires no additional or separate extraction phases. The polyurethane replica is stable up to 150 degrees C and possesses a good longevity and a capacity to emboss a biological entity into a thermosetting plastic such as poly(ethylene terephthalate).
