Recently, the stretchable piezoresistive composites have become a focus in the fields of the biomechanical sensing and human posture recognition because they can be directly and conformally attached to bodies and clothes. Here, we present a stretchable piezoresistive thread sensor (SPTS) based on Ag plated glass microspheres (Ag@GMs)/solid rubber (SR) composite, which was prepared using new shear dispersion and extrusion vulcanization technology. The SPTS has the high gauge factors (7.

Transgenes delivered by lentiviral vectors exhibited inheritable expression in many species including those which are refractory to genetic modification such as non-human primates. However, epigenetic modification was frequently observed in lentiviral integrants, and transgene expression found to be inversely correlated with methylation density.
