The Use of Solid States Ionic Materials and Devices in Medical Applications
Abstract
Electrolyte materials used in solid state polymer batteries can also be utilised in a special type of drug delivery system called an iontophoretic device. This review will describe the history, applications and limitations of iontophoretic and related systems and also the use of batteries and biofuel cells in medicine.
