Disclosed herein compositions of polysaccharides chemically cross-linked by aromatic dialdehydes. The compositions may be in form of polymeric sheets for a variety of applications. Disclosed also nano-sized particles comprising the polysaccharide chemically cross-linked by aromatic dialdehydes. The nano-sized particles may further comprise lipids and surfactants. Intranasal delivery of the nano-sized particles enables delivery of biologically active agents into the brain. Topical and transdermal delivery of the nano-sized particles enables delivery of biologically active agents for treatment of systemic or dermatological disorders. Methods of manufacturing and uses of the compositions are also disclosed.

A microneedle applicator is provided. A microneedle applicator according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a microneedle array; an operation member disposed on the upper portion of the microneedle array and operating such that a user applies an external force so as to insert a microneedle into skin; a housing for accommodating the microneedle array and the operation member; a first guide member disposed in at least one position on a lateral portion of the operation member or on a lateral portion of an interworking member of the operation member; and a second guide member which is disposed on the inner surface of the housing in a position corresponding to the first guide member so as to be engaged with the first guide member, and allows the first guide member to slide so as to prevent the microneedle array from rotating or horizontally distorting when the microneedle array uniformly vertically descends due to the external force.

The inventive subject matter is directed to compositions and methods for sterile and storage stable low-dose atropine formulations with improved stability. Most preferably, the compositions presented herein are substantially preservative free and exhibit less than 0.35% tropic acid from degradation of atropine. Advantageously, contemplated formulations are also substantially free of preservatives.
