nanoPump: Precise drug delivery based on NASA propulsion technology
Abstract:
Disposable 3 Day Insulin Patches Enabled by
PNP SiGe Thermoelectrics Driving a NanoCompressor based on Thermal Diffusion
Torramics is developing the world’s smallest and most precise wearable drug delivery device: the nanoPatch.
By integrating proven pneumatically driven nanofluidic technology with an innovative thermal diffusion nanoCompressor—originally developed at NASA Ames for propulsion of Martian aircraft—the nanoPatch provides a disposable solution that is significantly smaller, more accurate, and more affordable than existing injectable drug delivery platforms.
The initial application will be a disposable insulin patch.
