Let A and B be semisimple Banach algebras, and let M1(A) (resp. M1(B)) be the algebra of left multipliers on A (resp. B). Suppose that A is an abstract Segal algebra in B. We find conditions on A and B which imply that M1(A) is topologically algebra isomorphic to M1(B). As a special case we obtain the result of [8] which states that if A is an A*-algebra that is a*-ideal in its B*-algebra completion B and A2 is dense in A then M1(A) is topologically algebra isomorphic to M1(B). We make an application of our main result to right complemented Banach algebras.
