ABSTRACT Microneedle (MN) has significant potential for transdermal glucose monitoring. However, challenges remain in selecting suitable materials long‐acting monitoring MN. In this study, precise solid UV‐curable resin MN patches were fabricated using a synergistic combination of the micromolding method and UV‐curing procedure, as an alternative to previous 3D printing. The properties UV‐cured prepared evaluated characterized, focusing on their results demonstrated that exhibited superior shape stability, very low cytotoxicity, minimal skin irritation, fracture force approximately 2.289 N/needle. Following immersion 37°C PBS different days, mass changed negligibly, still reached half original values after 21 days. is highly promising substrate MN, study provides new material selection strategy development.
