Sumario:The Standard Model process of ttbar production is one of the most important backgrounds to searches for Supersymmetry (SUSY) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. We describe a new method to estimate the contribution of tt->bblnqq events in SUSY searches with large missing transverse energy, multi-jets and veto against leptons with the first 200 pb^{-1} data of the ATLAS experiment. The performances of this method are evaluated with 10 TeV simulated data.
