    Do you like working up a sweat? Or do you feel like maybe sweat should work for you? .Well, hold on to your sudoriferous glands. Because researchers have designed a device that could somebody produce power from your perspiration. The schvitzy scheme was presented at the annual meeting of the American Chemical Society in San Francisco. Strenuous exercise generates lactate- the molecule that makes overworked muscles burn. Athletes sometimes evaluate their fitness by checking the lactate levels in their blood. To cut down the blood draws ,researchers came up with a monitor that could measure the lactate in sweat.The device they designed strips electrons from lactate ,which creates a small electric current. The strength of the current  reveals the amount of lactate present. To test the system ,10 volunteers wore the arm -patch sensor while they rode a stationary bike. And the device recorded  the current they delivered as they dripped. Then the researchers thought, what if they could tap into this energy to develop a sort of sweat powered "bio battery?" Their proof-of -concept setup topped out at only about 4 microWatts of juice-not even enough to run a watch.But with better electronics, exercising in the future could make dirty cloths and some clean energy
