Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Introduction Electrochemical processes usually occur under condition of electric neutrality of a system as whole and its macroscopic parts separately. A set of electrochemical reactions may be quite complicated, but the deviations from neutrality usually have scale determined by Debye length only, i.e. known types of chemical processes cannot result in appearance of macroscopic electric charge and electric currents. At the same time, appearance of macroscopic electric charge (as well as electric current of pronounceable magnitude) in biological systems is a result of chemical reactions. The most important example is electric activity of biological neuron networks. Now we report that organic chemical reaction directly resulting in charging of a macroscopic specimen is observed. Non-zero macroscopic charge appears during long-distance interactions between two polymer
