摘要 |
A biomedical electrical conductor having a thin, conformable layer of an inorganic oxide of low polarizability is disclosed. The inorganic oxide can be a manganese oxide, preferably manganese dioxide. The biomedical electrical conductor as a multi-layered composite also is disclosed, using the inorganic oxide layer in mechanical and electrical association with an electrically conductive component which is mechanically in association with a nonconductive polymeric film. The composite forms an essentially x-ray transparent, flexible conductor of low polarizability. Biomedical electrodes using the biomedical electrical conductor and methods of making and using the conductors and the electrodes are also disclosed.
