Polymeric Microneedle Array Fabrication by Photolithography.
This manuscript describes the fabrication of polymeric microneedle (MN) arrays by photolithography. It involves a simple mold-free process by using a photomask consisting of embedded micro-lenses. Embedded micro-lenses were found to influence MN geometry (sharpness). Robust MN arrays with tip diameters ranging between 41.5 µm ± 8.4 µm and 71.6 µm ± 13.7 µm, with two different lengths (1,336 µm ...
متن کاملFabrication of conical microneedles array using photolithography
Background and Aim: Microneedle technology has led to huge changes in the field of drug delivery medicine. Using microneedles, the drug can be injected locally, painlessly, and in very low and controlled doses with high precision. Local drug delivery through the skin with microneedles has many advantages over other methods of drug delivery. In this method, the drug does not enter the gastrointe...
متن کاملPolymeric microneedle fabrication using a microinjection molding technique
Polymeric microneedles fabricated by microinjection molding techniques have been demonstrated using Topas COC as the molding plastic material. Open-channel microneedles with cross-sectional area of 100 lm · 100 lm were designed and fabricated on top of a shank of 4.7 mm in length, 0.6 mm in width, and 0.5 mm in depth. The tip of the microneedle has a round shape with a radius of 125 lm as limit...
متن کاملFabrication of Polymeric Micro needle Array by Micromachining & Micro molding
Microneedles are expected to have greater demand in biomedical applications like sensing, electroporation & drug delivery in the future and there is need for development of fabrication process which is simple, economical and productive. Present work discusses about fabrication of PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) micro needle array electrode for bio-potential signal measurement like EEG by micromachi...
متن کاملProtein encapsulation in polymeric microneedles by photolithography
BACKGROUND Recent interest in biocompatible polymeric microneedles for the delivery of biomolecules has propelled considerable interest in fabrication of microneedles. It is important that the fabrication process is feasible for drug encapsulation and compatible with the stability of the drug in question. Moreover, drug encapsulation may offer the advantage of higher drug loading compared with ...
