A device is provided which is suitable for delivering at least one
nanoparticle(s) to a subject. The device can be used to deliver a variety
of nanoparticles, for example, therapeutic agents, directly through the
outer layers of the skin without passing completely through the epidermis
of the subject. Thus the device can be used to deliver therapeutic agents
to a predetermined depth and avoid disturbing the pain receptors in the
skin. Thus the device can be used to deliver agents, including
therapeutic agents, in a non-invasive manner. A method of fabricating
devices with associated nanoparticles is also provided.
