Silk-based resorbable electronic devices for remotely controlled therapy and in vivo infection abatement
2014
We present the demonstration of in vivo operation of a subcutaneously implanted, resorbable electronic device. The remotely controlled device was wirelessly activated after implantation, successfully eliminating infection, and subsequently dissolving in the surrounding tissue. This approach is a first step for the development of a class of implantable, technological, biomedical devices that resorb harmlessly, eliminating the need for retrieval after use.
