Bulking agents have gained attention as new, minimally invasive treatments for fecal incontinence. Various materials and surface treatment techniques been extensively studied to ensure good biocompatibility long-term stability. Despite significant improvements in biocompatibility, the nonuniform particle size of existing has led other challenges, such induction phagocytosis or reduction injectability during vivo tests. This study aimed conduct a preclinical test midterm stability bulking with newly formulated particles uniform size. To this end, were fabricated using microfluidics, resulting narrow dispersity less than 5% coefficient variation, which is essentially distinct from conventional agents. The microfluidic fabrication resulted uniformly sized larger migratory limit 80 μm maximum injection pressure. Histological staining microscopic observations confirmed proper positioning filler negligible immune response up 6 months, indicating successful

Step emulsification (SE) is renowned for its robustness in generating monodisperse emulsion droplets at arrayed nozzles. However, few studies have explored poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based SE devices producing oil-in-water (O/W) and polymeric microspheres with diameters below 20 µm-materials broad applicability. In this study, we present a PDMS-based microfluidic device designed to achieve goal. Two 264 nozzles each were fabricated, featuring straight triangular nozzle configurations, both height of 4 µm minimum width 10 µm. The rendered hydrophilic via oxygen plasma treatment. A photocurable acrylate monomer served as the dispersed phase, while an aqueous polyvinyl alcohol solution acted continuous phase. produced polydisperse exceeding 30 coefficient-of-variation (CV) values above 10%. contrast, nozzles, opening 38 µm, consistently generated CVs 4%, maximum throughput 0.5 mL h-1. Off-chip photopolymerization these yielded acrylic microspheres. low-cost, disposable, scalable offers significant potential applications spanning from laboratory-scale research industrial-scale particle manufacturing.

Abstract Targeted drug delivery system (DDS) holds exciting prospects in biomedical clinical research and development. However, it faces a significant challenge achieving stable safe targeted transportation without leakage while obtaining precise controllable dosing with high utilization rate low side effects. Herein, an optical tweezers‐based light‐driven technique is proposed to transport construct multi‐core/shell microdroplets enveloping carriers target cells as novel, safe, efficient DDS. Drug‐loaded core/shell structures are first fabricated by new simple injection extrusion method then transported cell dynamic trap power, which ensures no leakage, exogenous materials, biothermal damage introduced during the process. Next, realized pushing into drug‐loaded microdroplet under actions of forces, constructs structure pure environment improve action efficiency. Moreover, quantitative can also achieved controlling sizes/number droplets inside microdroplets. This DDS great interest frontier medical disease treatment fields.
