Biomedical Test Uses Urine Based Battery

In the August 15th, 2005 issue of Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering, Ki Bang Lee of the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology in Singapore divulged an inexpensive fabrication process for the construction of paper batteries that use urine as an active ingredient. The battery, which is compatible with plastic molding production techniques, is based on a magnesium layer and copper chloride doped paper. The battery is reported to have a power capacity of greater than 1.5 milliwatt and has the potential to be integrated into bioMEMS devices used for home diagnostic and medical tests.
