The effects of geometry on skin penetration and failure of polymer microneedles

Gittard, S. D., Chen, B., Xu, H., Ovsianikov, A., Chichkov, B. N., Monteiro-Riviere, N. A., & Narayan, R. J. (2012, August 6). Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology, Vol. 27, pp. 227–243.

TL;DR: Video captured during skin penetration revealed that microneedle penetration into the skin occurred by means of a series of insertions and not by Means of a single insertion event, shedding insight into the mechanisms of microneEDle penetration and failure, facilitating design improvements for polymer microneeds.
