Previous studies have suggested a direct relationship between the nasopharyngeal carriage of potential middle ear pathogens and the development of middle ear disease. It has been shown that otitis-prone (OP) children tend to be colonized more often than non-OP children. To study the turnover of nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHI) in the nasopharynx of OP children, arbitrarily primed PCR was applied to NTHI strains isolated nasopharyngeal swabs collected prospectively during a 2-year study period from 35 OP children under 4 years of age at fixed intervals. METHODOLOGY/MATERIALS: In 20 patients, H. influenzae could be isolated from different sites (left and/or right ear and/or nasopharynx) or at different occasions during follow-up. Forty-eight H. influenzae isolates of different sites (left and/or right ear and/or nasopharynx) of the same patient as well as from siblings were typed using arbitrarily primed PCR with primer ERIC2 and RAPD Ready-to-Go beads (Pharmacia Biotech, Uppsala, Sweden).
