摘要 |
A cohesive nonsticky electrically conductive gel is disclosed, for facilitating low resistance contact between a metal electrode and a biological body. The gel comprises an aqueous solution of up to saturated concentrations of ionized salts as the conducting agent, a natural gum capable of crosslinking, and a crosslinking material which provides the electrically conductive gel with sufficient internal strength to remain cohesive without reinforcement. The gel has good electrical characteristics and improved physical properties which prevent the gel from leaving a messy residue on the skin of the patient or on the electrode.
