Hard polymeric porous microneedles on stretchable substrate for transdermal drug delivery

Abstract Microneedles offer a convenient transdermal delivery route with potential for long term sustained release of drugs. However current microneedle technologies may not have the mechanical properties for reliable and stable penetration (e.g. hydrogel microneedles). Moreover, it is also challeng...
