Well-designed microcapsules fabricated using droplet-based microfluidic technique for controlled drug release
Abstract(#br)Microfluidics is an emerging technology for synthesis of drug-loaded micro- and nano capsules for targeted delivery and controlled release, which has extensive applications in tumor therapy and pharmacological study in healthcare. A number of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic devices have been developed and widely used, while PDMS based microstructure device does not support long-term stability and repeated use, moreover it requires special facilities for fabrication and plasma bonding.
