Skin biomechanics: Breaking the dermal barriers with microneedles

ABSTRACT: Microneedles (μND) are promising devices that can be used to transport a wide variety of active compounds into the skin. To serve as an effective delivery system, μND must pierce the human stratum corneum (~10-20 μm), without breaking or buckling during penetration. In the current review,...
