Self-organized, micropatterned, radio frequency (RF) blocked biocontainers and their use for remotely and spatially controlled drug delivery

摘要

The present invention relates to a nanoscale or microscale particle for encapsulation and delivery of materials or substances, including, but not limited to, cells, drugs, tissue, gels and polymers contained within the particle, with subsequent release of the therapeutic materials in situ, methods of fabricating the particle by folding a 2D precursor into the 3D particle, and the use of the particle in in-vivo or in-vitro applications The particle can be in any polyhedral shape and its surfaces can have either no perforations or nano/microscale perforations The particle is coated with a biocompatible metal, e g gold, or polymer. e g parvlene, layer and the surfaces and hinges of the particle are made of any metal or polymer combinations.
