METHODS AND MOULDS FOR USE IN FABRICATING SIDE-PORTED MICRONEEDLES

摘要

A microneedle mold and a method of manufacturing a microneedle mould are provided for use in fabricating microneedles. The method includes providing a microneedle mould base with recesses therein, the recesses corresponding to the microneedles to be fabricated and extending from a first surface of the microneedle mould base; and forming side-port forming holes in the microneedle mould base, the side-port forming holes extend in side surfaces of the recesses within the microneedle mould base at side-port forming positions of the recesses.
