Dataset for "3D‐Printed Hollow Microneedle‐Lateral Flow Devices for Rapid Blood‐Free Detection of C‐Reactive Protein and Procalcitonin"

This dataset pertains to a study involving the use of 3D printed hollow microneedles (HMNs) for the detection of c-reactive protein and procalcitonin. It includes:

- Chemical modification of the HMNs surface to enhance its ability to uptake fluids rapidly;
- the mechanical properties and skin penetration of both HMNs;
- Characterizations' of the material, including FTIR, TGA and AFM;
- Cytotoxicity assessment of the HMNs;
- Uptake of CRP and PCT in solutions and detection using LFTs.

The data provides a suggestion towards the use of HMNs for the effective rapid diagnostics of inflammation markers.

Documentation

Data collection method:

Cytotoxicity: HMNs and 3D printed parts were tested against human dermal fibroblast cells and breast tumour cells. Samples were exposed to the cells and cell death was recorded over 24 hours. Alternatively, cell growth was recorded over 48 hours. CRP and PCT detection: A spiked solution of relevant concentration was prepared. LFTs were placed within the HMNs. HMNs were placed within PBS. Mechanical properties: HMNs were tested on a DMA up to 10 newtons. Data is proved in the form of excel document. Skin Penetration: HMNs were placed on porcine skin and a known force was applied and the resultant skin pores were optically imaged. Data is in the form of images. Wettability: Square samples were printed and treated with various treatments. The contact angle was taken over time to determine the effect. Raw data and data analysis can been found in the respective files.

Technical details and requirements:

The data is provided in MS Excel format.
