Abstract
In this study, a bacteriological examination was performed in the specimens of nose, ear and conjunctiva taken from 135 patients aged between 0-6 years old and 335 patients aged more than six years old for the isolation of H. influenzae. Ten H. influenzae strains were isolated, six of them were type b. Seven isolates were from 0-6 years old group (5.2%). All strains were susceptible to chloramphenicol, three strains were resistant to ampicillin with Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method.
