| selective adherence of non-typeable haemophilus influenzae (nthi) to mucus or epithelial cells in the chinchilla eustachian tube and middle ear. | frozen sections of chinchilla eustachian tube (et) and middle ear mucosa were incubated with either fitc-labeled non-typeable haemophilus influenzae (nthi) or bordetella pertussis. the number of bacteria adherent to "roof" vs "floor" regions was compared for each of three anatomic portions of the et and for middle ear epithelium noting whether bacteria adhered to mucus or to epithelial cells. nthi strains adhered significantly greater to mucus in the et lumen whereas b. pertussis preferentially ... | 1996 | 8938642 |
