Needle-free injection: from spring-driven to laser-drivenFear of needles is, for part of the population, the main reason for not having a Covid-19 vaccine. That fear is of all times, clearly demonstrated by the fact that needle-free techniques have been developed for over 150 years. The current technology, developed by David Fernandez Rivas and his team, is safer than previous ones, it is better possible to steer the injection fluid and the depth it penetrates into the body. This is reason enough for researcher Jelle Schoppink to compare the different options, in a ‘perspective paper’ in Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews.Read more
