Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cutaneous malignancy in humans. One of the most efficacious drugs used in the management of BCC is the immunomodulator, imiquimod. However, imiquimod has physiochemical properties that limit its permeatio...

Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles (2020)
Journal Article
Sabri, A. H., Cater, Z., Ogilvie, J., Scurr, D. J., Marlow, M., & Segal, J. (2020). Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles. Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology, 58, Article 101766. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jddst.2020.101766

The protection provided by the human skin is mostly attributed to the stratum corneum. However, this barrier also limits the range of molecules that can be delivered into and across the skin. One of the methods to overcome this physiological barrier... Read More about Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles.
