Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>This manuscript describes an inexpensive and versatile top‐down method to produce microparticles</bold> that integrate both thermoplastics and polyelectrolytes with a unique dot‐on‐pad structure. These particles may allow in vivo unidirectional drug delivery to single cells. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1x44d72j" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
