Insights: Events Investigation of PVA microneedle for Protein Delivery

AlChE Annual Meeting

The delivery of drugs containing proteins continues to be a challenge. Topical creams are not suitable for delivery since proteins are not capable of passively crossing the stratum corneum. Oral delivery although useful often leads to some protein degradation before reaching the target site and using hypodermal needles can be painful and pose a risk of contamination as well as waste disposal issues. Microneedles are an attractive alternative to traditional dermal drug delivery since they can be specifically designed to deliver proteins painless and more effectively.
