title: A diamond nanoneedle array for potential high-throughput intracellular delivery.
abstract: A dense diamond nanoneedle array is capable of rapidly and conveniently delivering fluorescent probe and drug molecules to a large number of cells. This simple approach paves the way for potential high-throughput delivery of genes, drugs, and fluorescent probes into cells without endocytosis.
