Data about individuals have been collected aseptically in sterile containers,after getting all data in the special formula including, name, gender, age. It revealed that Cytomegalovirusformed (CMV) 13.3% followed by Toxoplasma gondii 0% Rubella 0%, depending on IgM. While showsresult in IgG seropositivity to Rubella was 60% followed by CMV was 36.7% and Toxoplasma was 10%.The results of the present study showed that all HBs Ag and HBe Ag were negative whereas HBe Ab andHBc Ab were positive, while HBs Ab was only three positive from other samples.

Background: Pentraxin (PTX s) is a classical mediator of inflammation and super family of a cut – phase proteins. Tumor necrosis factor-α, is one of the pro-inflammatory cytokines, released in various chronic inflammatory disease including periodontitis. Subjects and method: the study comprised 75 patients,50 with chronic periodontitis (CP) (25 smoker and 25 non smoker ) and  25 normal subjects, age ranged between (20-50 years old, This study carried out in periodontal department clinic/ collage of dentistry/ university of Babylon, Hilla city , Iraq, 5 ml of unstimulated  whole saliva was collected from all  subjects to measure Pentraxin-3(PTX-3) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent  assay technique (ELISA).Result: the result  show  there are non-significant differences in the levels of PTX-3 and TNF-α between the patients and controls and non significant between smoker and non smoker(p≤ 0.05) .In smoker patients there is a negative correlation between concentration PTX-3 and number of cigarette per years of  smoking. While there’s a positive correlation between level of TNF-α and and number of cigarette per years of smoking. Conclusion: Smoking in chronic periodontitis patients has no effects on levels of PTX-3 and TNF-α in saliva.Keywords: Chronic periodontitis, Smoking, Saliva, PTX-3, TNF-α.
