Abstract

Microscopic Cascading Devices In article number 2206330, Tijana Maric and co-workers present cascade drug delivery microdevices comprise of micromotors and microcontainers to deliver a model drug and move through porcine mucosa. The conceptual device combines the advantages of unidirectional drug release achieved by microcontainers orientation and the dynamic motion properties of micromotors.
