Result description
Graphene provides great drug-loading capability due to the wide surface area. Graphene (oxide) has been widely explored as drug carrier for drug delivery system. The proposal of the present invention is to take advantage of graphene potential to operate as a drug- and electron-carrier, to create a programmable drug delivery device. These properties provide a miniaturized tunable drug-delivery system, capable of regulating rate, timing, and speed of drug release to the mucosa and transmucosal level. Furthermore, the present invention may be composed by a biosensor system that enable extraction of mucosa and submucosa body fluids. Thereby, the biosensor system collects biometric information that are transmitted to an electronic device, such as a smartphone, which is further connected with the microprocessor embedded in the drug reservoir, enabling an interactive evaluation of the user’s need of drug delivery device intervention. Therefore, the present theranostics approach is expected to greatly improve the current pharmacological treatment of gastroenterology, hematology, infectious, neurology, psychiatry, endocrinology, nutrition and respiratory tract diseases.
