Abstract

A packaging system for a bioelectrical stimulating and recording electrode is provided. The system includes a semi-porous protective container in which the electrode is housed. A conductive biocompatible and bioresorbable liquid partially fills the container in order for the electrode housed therein to be coated by the liquid. While the preferred conductive liquid is glycerol, other liquids may be chosen for practicing the invention.
