Targeted Local Delivery via Fiber‐Embedded Flexible Microchannels Integrated with Film‐Based Implantable Probes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
In this study, a fiber‐embedded drug delivery channel for implantable microprobes, demonstrating the first functional drug delivery system using flexible LCP‐based probes, is developed. The design incorporates fibers for site‐selective drug delivery and electrical functions. The utilization of monolithic thermal bonding simplifies fabrication.
