Diagnosis of Group A beta hemolytic strep tonsillitis -

* cultre of tonsills (gold standard)
* culture from bucal surface (test)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will examine 2 groups. first group of 50 children aged 3-18 years and the second group of adults aged 18-65 with a clinical diagnosis of tonsillitis and centor criteria of 2 or more (fever, exudates on tonsills, no cough, enlarged lymph nodes).
