Structure design and testing of drug micro-jetting multifunctional system

Abstract

For the researches relating to the biomedical fields such as preparation of drug micro-particulates and biomedical materials coating, according to the modular design concept and combing the piezoelectric micro-jetting technology with electromechanical engineering and automatic control technology, the drug micro-jetting multifunctional system was designed, which included the spraying support subsystem, X - Y motion platform, Z -axis subsystem and rapid installation subsystem. The drug micro-jetting multifunctional system was run and adjusted. The versatility, rationality and feasibility of this system were validated by the experiments of amoxicillin microcapsule preparation, titanium alloy drug-loaded coating preparation and balloon electrode coating preparation. It was shown that the system can be used as basic platform in multi-disciplinary cross technology research such as biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical engineering and so on.
