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.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
