Competing Interests
MRP is an inventor on patents on microneedles, some of which have been licensed. MRP also serves as a consultant or advisory board member for companies working on microneedles. Because the microneedle system reported here is different from microneedle products under development, the information in this manuscript is only indirectly related to those products.
