| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The research aimed to investigate novel techniques using pulsed power and micro-plasma for developing a shock wave assisted non-invasive method for DNA/drug/vaccine delivery.According to the research plan, design and construction of the model system, experimental analysis and optimization of the techniques, tissue model and in-vitro evaluation of the delivery, and skin model non-invasive needle free delivery, have been performed.
Interesting results from the research have been obtained. The results include a new high efficiency micro-plasma micro/nano-particle delivery system, novel impulsive acceleration and rapid motion of free surface for DNA/drug/vaccine delivery, and new needle-free drug/vaccine delivery using pulsed power shock wave. The research outcome have been published in leading scientific journals, including PLoS one, Applied Physics Letter, Theranostics, and Biotechnology & Bioengineering Journals.
