| Abstract | ||
| The bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa was isolated from patients of burns in Al-Ramadi hospital and diagnosed according to its cultural , microscopic and biochemical properties. sensitivity test of the bacterium against antibiotics was established and the results appeared it was sensitive to the antibiotics Carbenicillin , Chloramphenicol , Rifampicin and Trimethoprim and resistant to the antibitcs Amoxicillin , Ampicillin Clindomycin Cloxacillin , Nalidixic acid , Cephaloxin , Tetracyclin and Tobromycin . Results of mutagenesis showed resistance of the bacterium to the lethal effect of nitrous acid and its sensitivity to the mutagenic effect of the acid relative to the antibiotics Rifampicin and Chloramphenicol but not to the antibiotics Carbenicillin and Trimethoprim . | ||
