Micro-Needle Integrated with Micro-Pump for Drug and Blood Deliveries in Polygonal Inner Structures of Micro-Channels

Blood is a complex suspension that demonstrates non-Newtonian rheological characteristics. The study of hemorheology has been of great interest in the fields of biomedical engineering and medical researches for many years. Micro-channel such as micro-needle has been an expanding medical technology...
