| Abstract | ||
| Bacterial colonization in nasopharyngeal duct is refered to it as normal flora in order to obtain information about it in school aged students, ninety five of them were taken randomly from both sexes(aged 7-18 years) for this work, the total number of isolates was(561) among them found in (210aerobic, 43 anaerobic and 303 facultative anaerobic) bacteria, also Candida albicans(5) isolates was isolated from both genders. Staphylococcus aureus and Morexella catarrhalis (23.6%), and facultative anaerobic (15.2%) respectively while Veillonella were dominant anaerobic isolated bacteria. It is also found that Staphylococcus aureus is more spreading in both genders while Streptococcus pyogenes and Morexella catarrhalis obtained second level in male isolates, in female M. catarrhalis in second stage. The least aerobic bacteria were represented by Corynebacterium in both males(1.5%) and females(1.2%). Fusobacterium was least isolated genus (0.5%) in both sexes and Candida albicans(0.8%) from both genders. The antibiotic Ciprofloxacin (5ug/disk) was found most effective antimicrobial agent while Oxacillin (1ug/disk) was the least one. These findings demonstrated that aerobic and anaerobic microbial flora were present in school aged students, the aerobic microflora outnumbered of anaerobic bacteria species, also showed that the number of bacteria effected in creases with age. | ||
