Effect of antibiotics on adherence of Haemophilus influenzae type b.
During antibiotic therapy for serious Haemophilus influenzae type b infections in children, respiratory mucosal colonization with this organism is suppressed but not eradicated. To define possible mechanisms contributing to this suppression, the ability of six antibiotics to influence the adherence of H. influenzae type b to human epithelial cells was investigated.

متن کاملPlasmid-mediated chloramphenicol resistance in Haemophilus influenzae.
A clinical isolate of Haemophilus influenzae HC234 was found to be resistant to chloramphenicol and tetracycline. It was shown that both resistance markers are tranferable as one unit to other Haemophilus influenzae strains and also to Escherichia coli. Data are presented which indicate that conjugation is the most likely mechanism of resistance transfer. HC234 was shown to carry a single plasm...
