Abstract

Recent data report increasing Haemophilus influenzae ampicillin- and chloramphenicol-resistant strains. Authors report the results of one year investigation in Sicily. In 281 clinical specimens tested, Haemophilus influenzae has been isolated in 60 cases. From antibiotic susceptibility tests it can be observed that 58 strains show ampicillin-resistance.
