Technology Description

A new micro-blast wave assisted non-invasive drug (liquid,solid or suspensions) delivery device has been developed. The same device can also be used to inject desired DNA into live cells. Using the new device one can inject drugs without using needles. The same device with additional attachement can also used to introduce desired macro-molecules like DNA to cells for gentic manipulations.

Appplications

Targeted delivery of drug/gene like a protable gene gun. A neeleless drug delivery device for vaccine and probably insulin delivery system. A portable cell transformation device.

Benefits

Currently in the market there are no commercial devices that can non-instursivley deliver liquids/suspensions to the desired biological target. Moreover None of the existing drug delivery methods can be integrated with miniature endoscopic surgical tools that are routinely used in the biomedical industry. In this context this new device has the potential to revolutionize the vaccine/drug delivery industry.
