Hot punching of high-aspect-ratio 3D polymeric microstructures for drug delivery

Lab Chip. 2015 Jun 21;15(12):2576-9. doi: 10.1039/c5lc00372e.

Abstract

Hot punching with two different strategies has been demonstrated as a new method of fabricating high aspect ratio 3D microstructures for drug delivery. It has been shown that this process is highly versatile with good replication fidelity and yield.
