Abstract
Two sampling techniques, nasal swabbing and oropharyngeal swabbing, for detection of the upper respiratory tract carriage of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae were studied prospectively with 296 healthy Filipino infants at various ages: 6 to 8, 10 to 12, 14 to 17, 18 to 22, 32 to 39, and 46 to 65 weeks. In all age groups S. pneumoniae was isolated significantly more often (P < 0.0001) from the nasal site than from the oropharyngeal site. H. influenzae was found equally often at both sites.
