Ultrafine three-dimensional (3D) laser lithographic fabrication of microneedle and its application to painless insertion and blood sampling inspired by mosquito

In the way of biomimetic research, we have developed a painless needle mimicking mosquito's proboscis. A real three-dimensional (3D) sharp and jagged needle shape elaborately like mosquito, however, was difficult to achieve as far as using conventional fabrication methods. For this purpose, a 3D las…
