A total of 34 samples from ear, blood, sputum, burns, CSF and cystic fibrosis infections were collected from Al-No’man hospital, Central Medicine City hospital and from sewage of Al-Dorra in Baghdad governorate. From these samples we got 18 isolates, 12 were identified to belong to Pseudomonas spp. according to their ability to grow on ceteremide agar.

         The present study was designed to shed light on the cytogenetic effects of tamoxifen in laboratory females’ mice (in vivo), and in human blood lymphocytes (in vitro). It was also aimed to investigate the role of black seed oil and honey in reducing these effects in mice.

         The cytogenetic effects of the drug were investigated after one day, three and five days of treatment with two doses, low dose (0.4 mg/kg) and high dose (0.8 mg/kg).

      This research was conducted to study the biological activity of Fumaria officinalis plant extract on laboratory animals. The herb Fumaria officinalis is a wide growing plant, has a wide reputation among herb- experts in Iraq, it's a folk traditions       Few photochemical investigation of this plant had been reported previously but non on the Iraqi plant, thus indicating that a research on this plant might be of value    Chemical detection was done to identify the active compound present in it.
