Background. The authors researched neurostimulating properties of the extract of peptides of drone brood larvae.
Materials and methods. In the course of the experiment the researchers used such physiological-pharmacological tests as “Open field” and “Development of conditional food-procuring reflex”.
Results. After intranasal administration of the biological product the researchers evidenced an increase in nootropic, anxiolytic activity in comparison with control groups that underwent intranasal introduction of the 0,9 % solution of NaCl.
Conclusions. Preparations of drone brood may be recommended at high fatigue, for recovery after depressions, stress, as well as at various neuroses.
