Microneedles From Shape‐Preserving Crosslinked Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) Hydrogels: Minimising Interference in Transdermal Proteomics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hydrogel‐forming microneedle patches are developed using shape‐preserving PVA‐PVP hydrogels, with and without chitosan, for minimally invasive transdermal protein biomarker sampling. The optimised patches enable efficient interstitial fluid uptake and proteomic analysis, while minimising interference.
