| Abstract | ||
| This study was designed to isolate heavy metal resistant Pseudomonas from different hospital sewage waste water in Mosul city; sixty isolates were collected as of their ability to grow in the presence of mercury, lead and nickel. Isolates were identified .Results revealed that they were belong to Pseudomonas , Six isolates were selected for further investigation. Growth rate at different temperature and PH, antibiotic sensitivity and minimum Inhibition concentration for each heavy metal was studied Results Showed that optimal growth rate was at 30° C and PH 7 . Isolate were resist to Penicillin, Cefuroxim, Tetracycline and Chloromphenicol,. Also result exhibited that MIC for mercury, lead and nickel. Were (50,100 for and 250-300 µg/ml) respectively. | ||
