Abstract: BACKGROUND & AIM:In this experiment we used the rate of micronucleus in mouse bone marrow eryhrocyte as norm ,to test the pueraria edulia pamp's effect for reducing the damage caused by tobacco tar. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Dividing the mice in to different groups dealing with different reagents.Use the normal method to make the specimens and observe,Analyzing the rats of micronucleus cells in different groups of mouse by statistics. RESULTS: The rate of micronucleus cells in mouse of the group that was fed with pueraria edulia pamp was less than that of the control group. CONCLUSION:There are positive effect of the pueraria edulia pamp in reducing the damage caused by tobacco.

Key words: Pueraria edulia Pamp, tobacco tar, mouse bone marrow eryhrocyte, micronucleus
