Abstract: A transportation device, physically transporting material to a target, includes an input module, a transporting module and an output module. The input module provides a carrier fluid. The transporting module is coupled to the input module for receiving the carrier fluid in order to disperse/atomize the material. The material enters the input module through a first opening and reaches the target Through a second opening. The input module further includes a guiding unit having a length longer than or equal to the distance between the throat portion and the second opening. One end of the guiding unit connects the transporting module. The other end of the guiding unit has a guiding comer for connecting to the first opening.

Abstract: This invention relates to a DNA vaccine preparation in a patch against virus infection comprising a DNA construct incorporated in a liposome, wherein the ratio of DNA to liposome is from 1:1 to 1:10; wherein the DNA vaccine preparation is preferably administrated after a pretreatment with alpha hydroxyl acids.

Abstract: A transportation device, physically transporting a material to a target, includes an input module, a transporting module and an output module. The input module provides a carrier fluid. The transporting module is coupled to the input module for receiving the carrier fluid in order to disperse/atomize the material. The output module has a throat portion, a first opening and a second opening. The throat portion is positioned between the first opening and the second opening, and the aperture of the first opening is larger than that of the second opening. The distance between the throat portion and the second opening is equal to or smaller than the distance between the throat portion and the first opening and is between three and ten times of the throat portion aperture (d). The second opening has an expending angle which is between half and three times of the throat portion aperture angle) (½d°-3d°. The material enters the input module through the first opening and reaches the target through the second opening.

Abstract: The invention relates to chitosan (CS) vehicles with chitosan nanoparticles, as well as methods for making such chitosan vehicles and for using them to carry a DNA or proteins by forming CS-DNA or CS-protein complexes. The present invention also relates to CS-DNA or CS-protein complexes being useful for transdermal delivery of DNA or protein with a low-pressure gene gun. In another aspect, the present invention also relates to CS-DNA or CS-protein complexes being useful for transcutaneous delivery of a DNA or protein with a skin patch. Further aspects of the present invention relate to methods for making CS-DNA or CS-protein complexes and for using them for diagnostic, therapeutic and biological industrial applications.
