eBook 정보

This book introduces transdermal drug delivery and the developments that have taken place in various transdermal drug delivery techniques including the system-level design approach of a novel miniaturized medical device to offer precise and painless drug delivery via a skin-based transdermal route. It discusses the microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based fabrication technique and the design, fabrication and characterization of different MEMS-based components like microneedles and micropumps. It further includes a MEMS-based component micropump with design, analysis, fabrication and characterization of the transdermal drug delivery device and challenges encountered in the design improvements.

Features:

Summarizes transdermal drug delivery systems especially with a focus on MEMS and microneedles, including theoretical concepts
Emphasizes system integration by describing simulation and design techniques as well as experimental fabrication
Discusses system-level integration for miniaturized therapeutic devices
Includes working simulation models covering microneedles and micropump analysis
Explores future direction in development of pertinent devices

The book is aimed at researchers, professionals, and graduate students in biomedical engineering, microelectronics, micro-electro-mechanical-systems, and drug delivery.
