Epidermal Biofuel Cells: Energy Harvesting from Human Perspiration

Abstract

No sweat, no gain: Flexible biofuel cells functionalized with lactate oxidase (LOx) and platinum as anode and cathode materials harvested biochemical energy from human perspiration (see picture). Substantial power was generated from human sweat in real-life scenarios. As a service to our authors and readers, this journal provides supporting information supplied by the authors.
