title: [Domination of Staphylococcus aureus in microbiocenosis of nasal cavity in children and adults with infectious and allergic rhinitis].
abstract: Aim. Determine the occurrence of S. aureus in microbiocenosis of nasal cavity of children and adults with allergic and infectious rhinitis.
  
  
  METHODS
  Content of nasal cavity microflora in patients with infectious and allergic rhinitis was studied. 295 patients were observed, among those--179 children aged 3 months to 14 years and 116 adults aged 15 - 71 years.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In 60.3% of cases in children and 52.5% of adults S. aureus was revealed to be the dominating microorganism. Additionally, in 26.8% of children and 35.3% of adults epidermal staphylococcus was isolated.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Antagonistic properties of these 2 species of microorganisms assume their competition on the nasal mucous membrane.
