Then, they used electrodes to measure the voltage that the protein generated. They measured the pressure being applied from below and controlled the tools exactly by using software. It turned out that lysozyme has a “piezoelectric effect,” meaning that it can generate charge when mechanical stress is applied. Materials with a piezoelectric effect can convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, and electrical energy into mechanical energy. The pressure disturbs their electrical neutrality, and polarization runs to the surface of the material. Only crystals with a lack of central symmetry can have piezoelectricity.
