This work represents an inventive attempt to apply recent advances in§nanotechnology to identify and characterise novel polymer systems for§drug delivery through the skin. Atomic§force microscopy (AFM) measurements of the nanoscale mechanical§properties of topical, drug-containing polymeric films enabled the§author to identify optimal compositions, in terms of flexibility and§substantivity, for application to the skin. To elucidate§the enhanced drug release from polyacrylate films incorporating medium§chain triglycerides, the author combined AFM studies with the§complementary technique of Raman micro-spectroscopy. This experimental§strategy revealed that the significant increase in the§drug released from these films is the result of a nanoscale two-phase§structure. Finally, in experiments examining the microporation of skin§using femtosecond laser ablation, the author demonstrated that the§threshold at which the skin's barrier function§is undermined can be dramatically reduced by the pre-application of§ink. The approach allows thermal damage at the pore edge to be§minimised, suggesting a very real potential for substantially increasing§drug delivery in a minimally invasive fashion.§
