Glucose Powered Fuel Cell
Has anyone gotten a chance to play around with a bio battery? I'm super interested in developing something that could take advantage of using blood sugar as a power source in the future..

@electricfeel hmm, that would be a great application. Having a device that could not only monitor blood sugar levels, but in case of a hyperglycemic emergency, "take glucose out", would be one hell of a safety net.
1. Monitors blood sugar levels, and also:
a. extracts glucose from the blood when levels get too high
b. uses glucose to power the device
c. can release recycled glucose back into the bloodstream when levels get too low
2. Monitors blood sugar levels, and also:
a. extracts glucose from the blood when levels get too high
b. does not use glucose for energy
c. but can still release recycled glucose back into the bloodstream when levels get too low
@Glims I see what both of you are saying.
I'm gonna research some more
