Genetic engineering of viruses has allowed the fabric used as a battery. The scientists, as quoted from the Daily Mail, using the two viruses are harmless to produce lithium-ion battery capable of high and could be recharged for the phone, or GPS Military.

This new energy source in the future be able sewn into uniform or bulletproof vests, and even can be poured or sprayed into containers of various sizes and shapes.

The battery produces electricity by converting chemical energy into electrical energy using two electrodes – an anode and katroda – which are separated by an electrolyte. The scientists from MIT to use M13, a virus that infects bacteria but harmless to humans. The virus can be arranged to produce a metal fluoride cathodes for lithium ion battery types.

The study reported in this week’s meeting at the American Chemical Society in Boston. Mark Allen of MIT, who made the study, said “we discussed is the fabric which is also the battery.”

“The battery that, once woven into clothing, could produce energy for a variety of advanced technology devices, including handheld radios, GPS devices and PDAs (Personal Digital Assistan), and they can also be used on mobile phones and smart phones (smartphones) which are used daily days.

He added: “The use of bacteriophage M13 as a pattern is an example of green chemistry (green chemistry), an environmentally friendly method of manufacturing the battery.” “Mode allows the processing of all the ingredients at room temperature and in water.”

He said the bacteria is more secure than make on lithium ion batteries because of the heat generated n minimal so that the smaller the risk of creating sparks. The researchers worked with industry to test and enlarge the scale of the battery-of-the virus, which they say can be used to power an unmanned aircraft for spying operations.

Battery is lightweight and durable and can be used-clothing refills can be useful for military and civilian. Allen said: “The soldier usually has to carry several pounds of batteries, but if we change the battery into the clothes, then the burden will be reduced weight carried.”

“The same thing can be done for business travelers who carry a few batteries and a separate power supply for laptops, mobile phones and other devices. They can reduce some expenses.
