By increasing the two parasitic resistances, the ESD robustness of LDMOS are significantly improved. The proposed structures have been successfully verified in a 0.35μm BCD process without using additional process steps. Experimental results show that the second breakdown current of the optimal structure increases to 3,5 A, which is about 367% of the original device.展开更多

Corneal scrapings were performed and processed for direct microscopy and culture in appropriate media using standard laboratory protocols.RESULTS: Out of 245 patients enrolled for study, 247 corneal scrapings were obtained. Ocular trauma was the most common predisposing factor (51.4%), followed by diabetes mellitus (15.1%). Cultures were positive in 110 scraping samples (44.5%): 45.5% samples had pure fungal infection, 40% had pure bacterial infections and 10% had mixed fungal and bacterial growths. Acanthamoeba was detected in 5 (4.5%) samples. The most common fungal pathogen was Aspergillus spp. (41%). The most common bacterial isolates were Staphylococcus aureus (38.2%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (21.8%).CONCLUSION: Incidence of fungal keratitis is high in our region. Therapeutic approach can initially be based on clinical features and sensitivity/resistance patterns. Microbiological research should direct the antimicrobial treatment. Antibiotic resistance to fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides is an important consideration.展开更多
