In this paper we present a calculation of the effects of bottom mixing withnew exotic quarks in the forward-backward and left-right asymmetries, thebottom branching ratio and the QCD coupling constant. A global fit with therecent data on these quantities is done and stringent bounds are obtained. Wediscuss the effects of different isospin signatures for the new possible exoticquarks. The consequences for superstrig-inspired $E_6$ models are discussed.Constraints on the bottom mixing with the isosinglet quarks of the fundamental27-plet are presented.Comment: 6 pages, 2 Tables, LaTe
