ABSTRACT:
An electrode for establishing electrical contact with the skin is disclosed, said electrode having a low impedance and comprising an electrically conductive metallic layer (4) and an electrically conductive gel (12) attached to said metallic layer, wherein the pH of the electrically conductive gel (12) is chosen so as to provide a corrosion of the metallic layer (4).
