Anisotropic flexible stress sensors based on Loofah/CN/MWCNTs by 刘璐, 贾晓丽, 黄书童, 张景龙, 李守宝, 柯燎亮

“…Consequently, the loofah skeleton and conductive coating were compressed and released simultaneously, effectively functioning as a variable resistor. As applied stress increased, the loofah framework became more compact, gradually increasing the contact area between carbon-based materials of different sizes, thereby generating new current pathways. …”

Time to treat the climate and nature crisis as one indivisible global health emergency by Kamran Abbasi, Parveen Ali, Virginia Barbour, Thomas Benfield, Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo, Stephen Hancocks, Richard Horton, Laurie Laybourn-Langton, Robert Mash, Peush Sahni, Wadeia Mohammad Sharief, Paul Yonga, Chris Zielinski

“…Fish provide more than half of dietary protein in many African, South Asian and small island nations, but ocean acidification has reduced the quality and quantity of seafood.16 Changes in land use have forced tens of thousands of species into closer contact, increasing the exchange of pathogens and the emergence of new diseases and pandemics.17 People losing contact with the natural environment and the declining loss in biodiversity have both been linked to increases in non-communicable, autoimmune, and inflammatory diseases and metabolic, allergic and neuropsychiatric disorders.10,18  For Indigenous people, caring for and connecting with nature is especially important for their health.19 Nature has also been an important source of medicines, and thus reduced diversity also constrains the discovery of new medicines. …”

Anti-fatigue adhesive non-swelling hydrogel constructed by covalent topological structure and micro-nano gel for stretchable bioelectronics by Gongwei Tian, Ming Zhu, Jianhui Chen, Cuiyuan Liang, Qinyi Zhao, Dan Yang, Yan Liu, Shuanglong Tang, Jianping Huang, Zhiyuan Liu, Weihong Lu, Meifang Zhu, Wei Yan, Dianpeng Qi

“…Hydrogel adhesives are rapidly emerging as a promising candidate toward flexible bioelectronics due to their adhesive characteristics and tissue-like mechanical properties. However, current hydrogel adhesives manifest weak anti-fatigue adhesion and an inability to ensure long-term integration of bioelectrodes on wet and dynamic tissue surfaces because they are constrained by their high swelling ratio and exclusive formation of covalent bonds at the tissue interface and its own weak cohesion. …”
