New source of power: human blood fuel cells
 

Not an April 1 joke. I don't think.

Using these fuel cells: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/search/wr...number=4671110 tiny yeast cells feeding on human blood could power small electric devices like pacemakers etc. (Via: newscientist.com)

Why does it have to be human blood?

Yeah without human blood we wouldnt go very far.....

Just because its SO much cooler then say, gofer blood or err squirrel blood :upsidedow

cows don't eat enough fast food, must be the trans fats. :1orglaugh

It's aimed at small devices implanted in the human body like pacemakers.

Because most of the people wearing pacemakers are, in fact, human.

If it weren't for Mcdonalds, cows and chickens would have pacemakers too.

I want to invent a flying car that runs on stupid people.

I'm going to be RICH!

Seriously, this is a key step towards nanotechnology human implants and nanocybernetics.
