Bioresorbable batteries for transient ingestible bioelectronics
Figure 1a–c illustrates the development of ingestible batteries and the medical use of batteries in ingestible device technologies. Here, we envision a capsule-based platform powered by bioresorbable batteries that enables two key applications in ingestible electronics: (1) BA-RFID tags for real-time tracking of medication and (2) a degradable capsule system for gastric electrical stimulation (GES). Upon exposure to gastric fluid, both devices began to dissolve over time, with all components designed to either degrade or be safely absorbed in the GI tract (Fig. 1d). Figure 1e schematically shows the battery structures and geometries, including an exploded illustration of each battery component, and highlights the use of bioresorbable batteries for capsule electronics. We designed two battery formats to support different capsule device configurations: 000-size batteries that fit within standard 000 gelatin capsules and larger-area batteries suited for more power-consuming capsule electronics (Fig. 1b,c). Both battery types utilize a bioresorbable magnesium alloy (AZ31, composed of Mg96Al3Zn1) as the anode and a molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) paper composite as the cathode (Fig. 1e). Encapsulation with natural waxes (beeswax and candelilla wax) protects the batteries from premature degradation and ensures stability under gastric conditions, enabling their safe and effective use in transient electroceutical and ingestible...

Edible batteries power medical devices in the body
A battery made with a substance resembling edible rice paper can power swallowable electronic medical devices. And after the battery has been safely digested, its broken-down ingredients can be absorbed by the body. The tiny power source has so far been tested in pigs, but the hope is that one day it could provide electricity for ingestible personalized devices that monitor human health or implanted ones that deliver electrical impulses to treat disease. The researchers who built the battery tested it in two devices: one with a radio-frequency identification (RFID) tag that can transmit data from inside the body, and one that electrically stimulates the stomach to trigger the release of hunger-regulating hormones. Their findings are described today in the journal Nature Chemical Engineering1. Ingredient overhaul Conventional batteries can be dangerous, says Giovanni Traverso, a mechanical engineer at the Massachussetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge and a co-author of the study. If an ingested medical device breaks open and the battery inside it leaks, it can cause chemical burns. The battery can also release toxic materials as it passes through the digestive system. So Traverso wanted to build a battery entirely from non-toxic materials that would be absorbed by the...
