Abstract: This precursor sheet for a fuel cell separator comprises a conductive substrate sheet, a dense layer including first graphite particles, and a conduction layer including second graphite particles, wherein the dense layer and the conduction layer include a resin, the first graphite particles have a volume resistivity of 20 m?·cm or greater and a bulk density of 1.7 g/cm3 or greater when compressed at 30 MPa, and the second graphite particles have a volume resistivity of less than 20 m?·cm and a bulk density of 1.5 g/cm3 or greater when compressed at 30 MPa. This precursor sheet for a fuel cell separator provides a fuel cell separator that has excellent shapability and good mechanical strength, conductivity, and gas impermeability.

Abstract: Improved ingestible event markers are provided. Aspects of the markers may include the presence of a matrix layer that includes a binder and source of an electron acceptor. Alternatively or in addition to the matrix layer, aspects of the markers may include a large surface area electrode having a surface area that exceeds the surface area of the circuitry of the marker. Aspects further include methods of making and using the ingestible event markers.

Abstract: Disclosed herein include systems, devices, and methods for generating and directly loading droplets onto a microfluidic device with contactless delivery. Droplets can be generated and loaded onto a sealed microfluidic device through one or more connecting ports. Loaded droplets can be manipulated, such as merged.

Abstract: An ingestible compositions includes a first polymer layer, an adhesive layer associated with the first polymer layer, where the adhesive layer includes an adhesive material and is configured to releasably adhere to the first polymer layer, an alginate layer adhered to the adhesive layer, and a second polymer layer associated with the alginate layer and configured to releasably adhere to the alginate layer. Aspects further include methods of making and using the compositions.
