In 1998, the Colombian government initiated an immunization program for children under one year of age with a Haemophilus influenzae capsular type b conjugate vaccine. After two years, the surveillance program of the Colombian Instituto Nacional de Salud Microbiology Group reported a 40% decrease in meningitis cases caused by H. influenzae. This effect was attributed to the vaccination. The surveillance program uses the standardized slide agglutination technique to serotype H. influenzae. The current study validated the accuracy of the slide agglutination method by means of the PCR technique. From children under five years of age, 146 isolates were obtained. These were collected between 1999 and 2002, and were characterized by biochemical t...
