Human blood acts as mermister

Indian scientists found that the human blood has the property of MERMISTER'S.
They proved that human blood changes its electrical resistance depending on how much voltage is applied. It also seems to retain memory of this resistance for at least five minutes.

I am ready to explain about mermisters if any one interested in it.please raise your questions here

    As far as every Electrical and Electronics Engineer known that there are only three basic elements - resistor, capacitor, inductor. But now if you say the same answer then you are absolutely too old for an electronics engineer. From the moment the existence of the mermister is confirmed they were added as the fourth basic element. But, i think it's going to take time to include in Indian text books even about the invention of such element.

    Blood is not a homogeneous fluid. It is interesting if there is the mermister effect. In developing biomedical devices with blood contact, it is known that surfaces with negative charge (glass for example) can trigger clotting. Semiconductor coatings like TiN seem to minimize this.

    It is probably the red cells that act like mermisters.

    Mermister is nothing but a MEMORY RESISTORS which is just a resistor with memory. This memory make's the mermister one of the hot topic as it remembers the voltage applied at last after the voltage supply is taken off. Now the RAM we are using in our computers are having volatile memory which looses its memory when voltage supply is taken off. If we use mermister materials in RAM then the problem of rebooting won't be there. You don't need to wait for minutes to switch on your computer(BOOTING) as the mermisters have memory they remember the previous state(voltage).

    Another fact - neurons in our brain also a sort of mermister....
