Lysozyme had a strong affinity to Re(CO)3+ and the terpyridine ligand can act as a carrier. Exchange of Br− with DMSO is the control factor, which enables the binding to that protein compared to the stable triazolate moiety.

Abstract Via an investigation of the broader historical conditions of European tattooing practices, this article argues that the example of the last German Governor of Samoa, Erich Schultz, demonstrates the key role of the body in colonial entanglements. By allowing himself to be tattooed in Samoan style, Schultz signalled his strong affinity with Samoan social practices and politics. Not merely indicative of a subjective shift, his tattooing also furthered his authority as a German colonial official. At a time when other European officials, including Germans in other colonies, shied away from engaging with the cultural and political practices of those they governed, Schultz and other German officials in Samoa self-consciously sought to colonize the Samoans while accepting and employing Samoan symbols of authority.

Thanks to the ultrahigh flexibility of 2D materials and to their extreme sensitivity to applied strain, there is currently a strong interest in studying and understanding how their electronic properties can be modulated by applying a uniform or nonuniform strain. In this work, using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we discuss how uniform biaxial strain affects the electronic properties, such as ionization potential, electron affinity, electronic gap, and work function, of different classes of 2D materials from X-enes to nitrides and transition metal dichalcogenides. The analysis of the states in terms of atomic orbitals allows to explain the observed trends and to highlight similarities and differences among the various materials. Moreover, the role of many-body effects on the predicted electronic properties is discussed in one of the studied systems. We show that the trends with strain, calculated at the GW level of approximation, are qualitatively similar to the DFT ones solely when there is no change in the character of the valence and conduction states near the gap.
