  • Publication number: 20160082239
    Abstract: The objective of the present invention is to provide: a microneedle array which is capable of inserting a microneedle into the skin at an oblique angle and thereby, upon injection with the microneedle, is capable of both relieving the patient's pain and preventing a drug solution from leaking; and a microneedle array device which comprises the microneedle array. To this end, a microneedle array comprises: a microneedle unit that includes microneedles; and a microneedle unit support member that includes an opening, guides both ends of the microneedle unit through inclined grooves, and arranges tips of the microneedles so as to project through the opening in an inclined manner.

  • Patent number: 7229540
    Abstract: To provide a biochip, a biochip manufacturing method, an electrophoresis method, and an electrophoresis apparatus, by which the detection accuracy may improve, there is a biochip introducing a sample in band form into a sample separation passage, by a means for reducing the band width of sample, at which the sample is before being introduced in the sample separation passage in band form. The band of sample supplied to the sample separation passage is compressed, and the expansion by diffusion may be prevented, thus the detection accuracy may improve.
