Researchers Publish Villi-Inspired Biobattery Study

Binghamton University researchers published findings in the journal Small regarding villi-inspired biobatteries capable of generating about 0.75 volts for at least 14 hours. The team, led by Professor Seokheun Choi, utilized a dormant polymer hydrogel seeded with Bacillus subtilis bacteria to mimic small intestine structures for potential wastewater treatment applications.
