Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae is a common cause of human disease and initiates infection by colonizing the upper respiratory tract. Based on information from histopathologic specimens and in vitro studies with human cells and tissues in culture, non-typeable H. influenzae is capable of efficient adherence and appreciable invasion, properties that facilitate the process of colonization.
