Abstract
To study the microflora of the oral cavity, children and adolescents living in Yakutsk were examined. Smears from the mucous throat and tonsils were used to conduct a microbiological analysis of the oral microflora in frequently ill children, as well as in children with acute tonsillopharyngitis, acute pharyngitis, and angina, also using the express-diagnosis method Streptatest for the presence of beta-hemolytic streptococcus group A (BHSA). In the frequently ill children, yeast fungi of the genus Candida, bacteria of the genuses Staphylococcus, Streptococcus and Klebsiella were found. As a result of the treatment in children, the anaerobic index is shifted to the normal range. According to the rapid test for BHSA, a positive result was detected in 37% of patients. Timely establishment of BHSA allowed conducting eradication antibacterial therapy, which led to recovery without complications.
