  • Publication number: 20230190640
    Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for administering a drug to a biological tissue in a patient, such as by intracellular and/or dermal delivery. The device includes a piezoelectric pulse generator; and an array of microneedle electrodes electrically coupled to the piezoelectric pulse generator, wherein the device, following insertion of the microneedle electrodes into the biological tissue, is configured to generate and deliver one or more electrical pulses through the microneedle electrodes effective to electroporate cells in the biological tissue and enable delivery of a drug into the electroporated cells.

  • Patent number: 11331665
    Abstract: A microfluidic centrifuge is provided that includes a microfluidic disc having a pair of through holes that include a first through hole and a second through hole, where the pair of through holes are disposed symmetric and proximal to a central axis of the microfluidics disc, where the microfluidics disc includes a sealable input port and a sealable output port, where the sealable input port and the sealable output port are connected by a microfluidics channel, and a pair of tethers disposed through the pair of through holes that are disposed to twist about each other for unwinding where the tether unwinding is disposed to interact with the through holes, where the microfluidics disc rotates about the central axis.
    Type: Grant
