Cellular scale implantable drug delivery device

Image from Licence Details: Cellular scale implantable drug delivery device

Applications: Drug delivery, Implantable, Neurological

Features Benefits
  • A circulation-type arrangement – device inlet and outlet are both located external to the body, with a delivery hole in the implantation area.
  • Results in delivery of the medication via diffusion, rather than convection – hence is more efficient. Only a fraction of the carrier fluid exits the device.
  • Cellular scale size.
  • Mitigates potential for an immune response and allows for long term implantation.
  • Entire device is flexible.
  • For ease of implantation and further reduction in foreign body response.
  • Delivery hole sized and configured for desired molecule.
  • So can be tailored for each specific use.
  • Inbuilt sensors.
  • Can detect the delivery of medication and the condition of a patient.
