BACKGROUND Missed immunization opportunities (MOs) are a significant barrier to achieving high immunization coverage. OBJECTIVE To describe the nature of MOs to immunize within primary care in New Zealand and their effect on immunization completeness. METHODS Audit of medical records of approximately 10 randomly selected children <2 years old from each of 62 primary care practices in Auckla...

A simple method of measuring charge in surface states as a function of the surfacepotential in MOS transistors or MOS capacitors is proposed. A constant d.c. current is fed into the gate of an MOS transistor and with the help of an operational amplifier, the gate voltage V, with respect to the bulk is plotted as a function of gate charge Q,. The gate charge as a function of the surfacepotential...

The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of different levels of mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) on performance, egg quality, immune responses, and gut microflora in laying hens exposed to Escherichia coli (E. coli) challenge. A total of 180 Hy-Line W-36 laying hens, 55 wk of age, were randomly distributed among 5 dietary treatments with 6 replicates o...

A comprehensive model is presented of the internal photoemission in MOS systems, at low electric fields (| | < 104 V/cm) in the dielectric. Model equations are separately solved for the case of zero photocurrent (J = 0) and for nonzero photocurrent (J ≠ 0), allowing calculation of various photoelectric characteristics of MOS structures. These calculated characteristics are shown to remain in ex...

The effect of MOSFET gate-oxide reliability on MOS switch with bootstrapped technique is investigated with the switched-capacitor circuit in a 130-nm CMOS process. The sample-and-hold amplifier with the openloop configuration is used to verify the impact of MOS switch gate-oxide reliability on the switched-capacitor circuit. After overstress on the MOS switch of sampleand-hold amplifier, the ci...

cleanup. Major compounds that have been shown to increase the solubility and thus the mobility of nutrients Mobile organic sorbents (MOS) such as dissolved and colloidal and contaminants are surfactants (Edwards et al., 1991; phase organic matter control flow of water and transport of solutes in soils. We studied the effect of MOS on contaminant fate by systematic Haulbrook et al., 1993; Rahman...

Murine epidermal growth factor (EGF) is synthesized as part of a large precursor (pro-EGF), which is thought to span the cell membrane. Comparison of the published pro-EGF sequence with the sequences of the translation products of viral oncogenes reveals that pro-EGF is related to the translation product of mos, the oncogene of Moloney murine sarcoma virus. Similarity is greatest between the CO...

Semiconducting two-dimensional crystals are currently receiving significant attention because of their great potential to be an ultrathin body for efficient electrostatic modulation, which enables to overcome the limitations of silicon technology. Here we report that, as a key building block for two-dimensional semiconductor devices, vertical p-n junctions are fabricated in ultrathin MoS₂ by in...

1. Abstract The localized heating of semiconductor devices on an integrated circuit can cause pronounced change in the operating characteristics of the circuit. This work proposes a mathematical model to calculate the changes in the output parameters of a FD SOI MOS used in the integrated circuits. The device characteristics change due to non-linearity in operation of the high heat dissipating ...

A wide-range differential difference operational floating amplifier (DDOFA) is introduced. The DDOFA is a new block useful for continuous-time analog signal processing. The DDOFA is realized using a differential difference transconductor with large signal handling capability and a single input differential output current op-amp. The DDOFA forces two differential voltages to the same value and p...
