Bioject Needle-free Injection

It's still in clinical trials but I wonder how long till I can get my hands on these. :D

Bioject's needle-free injection technology works by forcing liquid medication at high speed through a tiny orifice that is held against the skin. The diameter of the orifice is smaller than the diameter of a human hair. This creates an ultra-fine stream of high-pressure fluid that penetrates the skin without using a needle.

Bioject's technology is unique because it delivers injections to a number of injection depths and supports a wide range of injection volumes. For instance, the Biojector 2000 can deliver intramuscular or subcutaneous injections up to 1 mL in volume. In addition, Bioject is developing a syringe for the Biojector 2000 that delivers intradermal injections that is currently in clinical trials.

Carlos, I just clicked on the link and the way I read it is that it is only the transdermal version that is still in trials, I think the others are available.

I like the one with elephant ears, I think it would help relax me :lol:

I'm wondering if it would work with oil based gear or if it would be too viscose.:scratch:

I wondered the same thing. If oil based is too thick.
