Viruses harnessed to create their own energy
Researchers are putting viruses to work in the lab, using them to build tiny devices that gather energy from mechanical forces, like the press of a finger, to run a small liquid-crystal display.
iPhone Powered By Viruses? Berkeley Scientists Move Closer
Viruses might eventually be able to power the very phone, computer or tablet you’re reading this article on. And we’re not talking about those digital viruses or infestations — trojans, worms, and whatnot. Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Berkeley Lab have found a way...
iPhone Powered By Viruses?
Viruses might eventually be able to power the very phone, computer or tablet you’re reading this article on. And we’re not talking about those digital viruses or infestations — trojans, worms, and whatnot. Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Berkeley Lab have found a way...
Viruses Harnessed to Create Energy
A postage stamp-sized electrode coated with specially engineered viruses converts a finger tap into electricity.
Viruses used to power tiny device
A US team of researchers develops a way to generate electricity using viruses.
Swine Flu Vaccine Yields Clues to Universal Flu Vaccine
The vaccine against swine flu seems to offer broader protection against other flu viruses, compared with the seasonal flu vaccine, researchers say.
Scientists generate electricity from viruses
Scientists have developed a way to generate power using harmless viruses that convert mechanical energy into electricity. The scientists tested their approach by creating a generator that produces enough current to operate a small liquid-crystal display. Their generator is the first to produce electricity by harnessing the piezoelectric properties of a biological material.
Viruses can be tapped for electric power
BERKELEY, Calif., May 14 (UPI) -- U.S. researchers say electricity generated by viruses could bring devices that generate power from everyday human activities like walking.
Viruses harnessed to generate electricity
Berkeley Lab scientists have found a way to make harmless viruses harvest mechanical energy, which could then be used, say, to charge a phone as its owner walks along. read more
Researchers generate electricity from viruses
Imagine charging your phone as you walk, thanks to a paper-thin generator embedded in the sole of your shoe. This futuristic scenario is now a little closer to reality. Scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have developed a way to generate power using harmless viruses that convert mechanical energy into electricity.
