Fussenegger Lab : ETH Zurich
A recent ETHzürich article discussed a new method of generating electricity using enzymes that break down glucose in the blood. Researchers from ETH Zurich have developed a biofuel cell that uses glucose oxidase and bilirubin oxidase to generate electricity from glucose. The biofuel cell has the potential to power implantable medical devices, such as pacemakers, using the patient's own blood glucose as a fuel source.
