Nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is an important cause of illness among children. To further understand the role of laterally transferred genes in NTHi colonization and otitis media, the prevalence of hicAB, lav, tnaA, and hifBC was determined among 44 middle ear and 35 throat NTHi isolates by dot-blot hybridization.
不可分型流感嗜血杆菌（NTHi）是儿童患病的重要原因。为了进一步了解横向转移基因在NTHi定植和中耳炎中的作用，通过斑点杂交法测定了44株中耳NTHi分离株和35株咽喉NTHi分离株中hicAB、lav、tnaA和hifBC的流行情况。
