title: [Properties of S. aureus and H. influenzae strains residing in the throats of children].
abstract: Strains of S. aureus and H. influenzae which were isolated from the throats of 41 children suffering from successive acute pharyngitis and tonsillitis were compared. All strains which were isolated at least twice, during acute occurrences, or more from the throat of each child, were traced by: phago-typing, biochemical properties, antibiogram and ability to produce beta-lactamases (S. aureus), or by: biotyping, serotyping, ability to produce beta-lactamases and antibiogram (H. influenzae). Based on these investigations it was concluded that the bacterial strains among the examined children had often changed. It was concluded that only a few children were a carriers of the same strain of S. aureus.
