“…Silver (Ag) ink (Creative Materials Inc., Ayer, MA, USA) or carbon (C) ink (Creative Materials Inc., Ayer, MA, USA) were used to print the cathode, and an in-house zinc ink, consisting of Zn particles (<10 µm; Sigma Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), was used for the anode. Zn/Ag ink and Zn/C ink were printed on a silk substrate to prepare the Zn/Ag or the Zn/C-electrode-printed patches, manufactured by xTrans Creative Inc (Taipei, Taiwan) [18]. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA; Sigma Aldrich), a biocompatible binder, was used to hold the Zn particles in the ink and effectively adhere the particles to the supporting fabric during the printing and curing [19][20][21].…”
