Disposable 3 Day Insulin Patches; Enabled by PNP SiGe Thermoelectrics

nanoPump: Precise drug delivery based on NASA propulsion technology

 

Abstract:

Disposable 3 Day Insulin Patches Enabled by

PNP SiGe Thermoelectrics Driving a NanoCompressor based on Thermal Diffusion

Torramics is developing the world’s smallest and most precise wearable drug delivery device: the nanoPatch.

By integrating proven pneumatically driven nanofluidic technology with an innovative thermal diffusion nanoCompressor—originally developed at NASA Ames for propulsion of Martian aircraft—the nanoPatch provides a disposable solution that is significantly smaller, more accurate, and more affordable than existing injectable drug delivery platforms.

The initial application will be a disposable insulin patch.
