PORTABLE MAGNETO-MECHANICAL DELIVERY DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DELIVERY OF REACTIVE SUBSTANCES

摘要

A method of delivery of reactive substances that are attached to magnetizable needlelike particles using a magneto-mechanical delivery device. The subject method and device can be utilized for the delivery of reactive or other substances, such as DNA via the penetration of a target body. Such penetration of a target or multiple targets can initiate the interaction between the material contained within the target site and the chemical substances delivered by the particles into the targets. In a preferred embodiment, the subject device is portable and does not require electrical power.
