Design and fabrication of a parasite-inspired, millimeter-scale tissue anchoring mechanism

Gabriel Maquignaz,
Rachel Zoll,
Michael Karpelson
et al.

Abstract: Optimizing mechanical adhesion to specific human tissue types is a field of research that has gained increasing attention over the past two decades due to its utility for diagnostics, therapeutics, and surgical device design. This is especially relevent for medical devices, which could benefit from the presence of attachment mechanisms in order to better target-specific regions of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract or other soft tissues for sensing, sample collection, and drug release. In this work, and inspired … Show more
