Microneedles in Action: Microneedling and Microneedles-Assisted Transdermal Delivery
Polymers, 2022 Human skin is a multilayered physiochemical barrier protecting the human body. The stratum corneum (SC) is the outermost keratinized layer of skin through which only molecules with less or equal to 500 Da (Dalton) in size can freely move through the skin.

Microneedle, bio-microneedle and bio-inspired microneedle: A review [PDF]
Journal of Controlled Release, 2017 Microneedles (MNs) are micro-scale needles used for drug delivery and other targets. Micro-scale size endows them with many advantages over hypodermic needles, including painlessness, minimal invasiveness and convenient operation, but it may also lead to risk of mechanical failures, which should be prevented in the clinical applications of MNs.
