Strain engineering is a promising way to tune the electrical, electrochemical, magnetic, and optical properties of 2D materials, with the potential to achieve high-performance 2D-material-based devices ultimately. This review discusses the experimental and theoretical results from recent advances in the strain engineering of 2D materials. Some novel methods to induce strain are summarized and then the tunable electrical and optical/optoelectronic properties of 2D materials via strain engineering are highlighted, including particularly the previously less-discussed strain tuning of superconducting, magnetic, and electrochemical properties. Also, future perspectives of strain engineering are given for its potential applications in functional devices. The state of the survey presents the ever-increasing advantages and popularity of strain engineering for tuning properties of 2D materials. Suggestions and insights for further research and applications in optical, electronic, and spintronic devices are provided.

Conductive hydrogels have great potential for applications in flexible wearable sensors due to the combination of biocompatibility, mechanical flexibility and electrical conductivity. However, constructing conductive hydrogels with high toughness, low hysteresis and skin-like modulus simultaneously remains challenging. In the present study, we prepared a tough and conductive polyacrylamide/pullulan/ammonium sulfate hydrogel with a semi-interpenetrating network.

Salmonella is a foodborne pathogen of global significance and is highly prevalent in pork. This study investigated the prevalence, contamination distribution, virulence genes and antibiotic resistance of Salmonella in 3 pork processors in the Shandong Province of China. Samples were collected from 13 different sampling sources across the slaughter procedures (600 samples) as well as at retail outlets supplied by these processors (45 samples).

The green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a promising host organism for the production of valuable compounds. Engineering the Chlamydomonas chloroplast genome offers several advantages over the nuclear genome, including targeted gene insertion, lack of silencing mechanisms, potentially higher protein production due to multiple genome copies and natural substrate abundance for metabolic engineering. Tuneable expression systems can be used to minimize competition between heterologous production and host cell viability.
