Abstract
A delivery assembly for an ingestible device to deliver a fluid preparation into a GI lumen wall or surrounding tissue of a subject includes a housing, a piston, a needle, and a membrane. The housing defines a chamber. The piston is movably disposed in the chamber. The needle is coupled to the piston. The membrane is coupled to the piston such that the membrane and the piston cooperatively define a reservoir for containing the fluid preparation.
