An electrochemical cell having an alkaline electrolyte and a gelled negative electrode containing zinc powder free from mercury, from cadmium, and from lead, and having 1 ppm to 1000 ppm of an organic stabilization compound selected from: polyfluoride compounds of the ethoxyl fluoroalcohol type; and compounds of the polyethoxyl alcohol and alcoyl sulfide type. The electrode is provided with a nail-shaped cylindrical negative current collector immersed in the gell and passing through a sealing plug and connected to the negative terminal. The current collector is constituted, at least superficially, by a substance selected from: pure zinc, pure cadmium, indium, and gallium; and the nail includes means assembled thereon without melting metal and serving to increase its developed surface area.
