Battery-Like System Avoids Safety Risks Associated with a Type of Chemical Reaction Known as Dissolv

Caption

Scientists at Scripps Research, inspired by the refined electrochemistry of these batteries, have developed a battery-like system that allows them to make potential advancements for the manufacturing of medicines. Their system avoids safety risks associated with a type of chemical reaction known as dissolving metal reduction, which is often used to produce compounds used in the manufacturing of medicines.
