  • Patent number: 11684762
    Abstract: Disclosed is an energy self-sufficient real time bio-signal monitoring and nutrient and/or drug delivery system based on salinity gradient power generation. The energy self-sufficient real time bio-signal monitoring and/or nutrient delivery system based on salinity gradient power generation includes: an electricity generation and nutrient and/or drug delivery module including a reverse electrodialysis device which generates electricity by using a nutrient and/or drug solution and discharge a diluted nutrient solution; and a bio-signal measuring unit inserted into the electricity generation and nutrient and/or drug delivery module and configured to receive electricity from the electricity generation and nutrient and/or drug delivery module and measure a bio-signal.

  • Patent number: 10407327
    Abstract: The present invention provides a bioelectrochemical system for removing a polyvalent ion present in seawater etc., capable of producing electricity. The bioelectrochemical system according to the present invention comprises: an anode chamber comprising an anode which accommodates an electron produced when treating an organic material in wastewater with a microorganism; a cathode chamber comprising a cathode receiving the electron from the anode, for producing a hydroxide ion by reacting the electron with oxygen and water provided from the outside, and depositing the polyvalent ion inside an electrolyte by using the hydroxide ion; and an anion exchange membrane for blocking the polyvalent ion inside the electrolyte from moving to the anode chamber. Also, the present invention provides the bioelectrochemical system capable of removing the polyvalent ion present in seawater etc., and simultaneously producing hydrogen.

  • Publication number: 20130090671
    Abstract: An endoscopic suturing device for suturing a surgical site in the body using an endoscope. Each of first, second and third modules (100, 200, 300) has a needle which sutures the surgical site at the distal end thereof, a clamp which holds a suturing thread of the needle, and a clamp and cutter which cuts the suturing thread of the needle, and in which each of the first, second and third modules is rotated upward and downward and tilted forward and backward and to the left and right by a location control means (500) in order to adjust the location thereof. It is possible to simply move the modules to a suturing site and to simplify the operation of suturing the surgical site using the needle or the operation of binding and fixing the surgical thread and cutting the surgical thread, thereby making surgical operability excellent.
