Abstract: The invention provides the present invention provides a faecal detection sensor for an absorbent article. The sensor includes a faeces-sensitive material that reacts to the presence of a constituent of faecal matter, wherein the sensor exhibits an electrical property that changes following the reaction of the faeces-sensitive material. In embodiments of the invention the faeces sensitive material is a material that reacts due to the presence of a sulfur-containing compound in faecal matter, such as metallic faeces-sensitive materials, or is a material that reacts with a faecal enzyme and/or other constituents of faecal matter, such as organic faeces-sensitive materials.

Abstract: A method and a device for treating at least a part of an individual's skin having a natural first polarization state. The method comprises the steps of applying at least two electrodes on the individual's skin at a distance from each other, and supplying a direct current to said electrodes to form an electrical potential difference between said electrodes on said part of the skin in order to bringing said part of the skin into a second polarization state, which is different from the first. The part of the skin is then suitable subjected to further treatment for example using cosmetics or pharmaceuticals. The invention can be utilized in the field of cosmetics and for therapy, and it can be used e.g. for accelerating skin care processes.

Abstract: A multilayered structure suitable as an electrode in a power source and a method of producing the same. The structure comprises a conductive laminar layer; and an enzyme layer containing an essentially dry enzyme capable of oxidizing or dehydrogenating carbohydrate material under suitable conditions. Because the enzymatic anode layer and the fuel containing layer are not interacting during the production and since they are kept latent during storage time, the power source will remain stable for extended periods of time, thus increasing the utility of the power source.
