  • Patent number: 11654109
    Abstract: A cavitation seed for drug delivery, and a drug delivery method using the same are disclosed. The cavitation seed according to the present invention comprises: a shell which forms the outer surface thereof to maintain the outer shape thereof within a fluid; and a core which is located inside the shell to determine buoyancy of the cavitation seed within the fluid. The cavitation seed can improve an effect of delivering a drug into a body since cavitation is induced by ultrasound at a position close to the epidermis. In addition, the cavitation seed can be applied in the delivery of various drugs as well as skin cosmetics, such as skin tone lightening agents, depilatories, hair restorers and skin fillers, skin analgesics, local anesthetics, agents for genetic diseases such as psoriasis, and agents for treatment of skin disease such as skin cancer.

  • Publication number: 20160375156
    Abstract: Disclosed are a micelle containing bubbles for drug delivery and a method for manufactuing the same. The micelle formed according to the present invention includes microbubbles fromed by evaporating the liquiefied inert gas due to the irradiation of ultrasonic waves to a solution in which the liquefied inert gas is mixed with a drug for disease treatment, and the micelle is formed as a unit structure in which the microbubbles are contained in a cavity and the cavity is enclosed in a shell, and delivers the drug to the human body. Therefore, the micelle can protect a material of the drug, which is delivered to the human body, as well as deliver a larger amount of the drug than the existing technique, and can be easily applied to the treatment of various diseases.
