| 1 | Freestanding region-responsive bilayer for functional packaging of ingestible devices显示文摘Ingestible capsules have the potential to become an attractive alternative to traditional means of treating and detecting gastrointestinal(GI)disease.As device complexity increases,so too does the demand for more effective capsule packaging technologies to elegantly target specific GI locations.While pH-responsive coatings have been traditionally used for the passive targeting of specific GI regions,their application is limited due to the geometric restrictions imposed by standard coating methods.Dip,pan,and spray coating methods only enable the protection of microscale unsupported openings against the harsh GI environment.However,some emerging technologies have millimeter-scale components for performing functions such as sensing and drug delivery.To this end,we present the freestanding region-responsive bilayer(FRRB),a packaging technology for ingestible capsules that can be readily applied for various functional ingestible capsule components.The bilayer is composed of rigid polyethylene glycol(PEG)under a flexible pH-responsive Eudragit®FL 30 D 55,which protects the contents of the capsule until it arrives in the targeted intestinal environment.The FRRB can be fabricated in a multitude of shapes that facilitate various functional packaging mechanisms,some of which are demonstrated here.In this paper,we characterize and validate the use of this technology in a simulated intestinal environment,confirming that the FRRB can be tuned for small intestinal release.We also show a case example where the FRRB is used to protect and expose a thermomechanical actuator for targeted drug delivery. | Michael A.Straker Joshua A.Levy Justin M.Stine Vivian Borbash Luke A.Beardslee Reza Ghodssi | 2023 | Microsystems & Nanoengineering2023，9，3： | 0 |
