Bee-Sting Inspired Microneedles from Chung-Ang University Could Revolutionize Drug Delivery
Patients who suffer from chronic conditions often require continuous injections of drugs, which is quite painful and often inconvenient. To address this, researchers from South Korea have developed new wearable microneedles which are inspired by bee stings. These electrospun web microneedles (EW-MNs) deliver drugs continuously through the skin without causing discomfort. In animal models, the system enhanced drug absorption while ensuring comfort—offering a safer and convenient alternative to conventional needle systems.
Neurological diseases affect millions worldwide, and the need for long-term patient-friendly treatments has never been greater. While needle-based injections are the standard … Read More → "Bee-Sting Inspired Microneedles from Chung-Ang University Could Revolutionize Drug Delivery"
