Zusammenfassung
In the present work we developed an ocular drug delivery platform based on natural pollen grains. The hollow microcapsules obtained upon the treatment of pollen present a highly porous structure with a 3D microneedle-like surface and are expected to enhance mucoadhesion and residence time of drugs administered to the ocular surface
