As the result of informative and analytical study there has been developed technological scheme of production new extraction drug of Laminaria Japanese (dry extract), which consists in extraction of active ingredients from pre-soaked dry crushed seaweed by maceration for 2 hours in hot water with addition of NaOH. After finalizing the extraction citric acid and calcium gluconate were added. Further, homogenization, pasteurization and freeze-drying of the end product have been carried out. Quality indicators and technological characteristics of end extract dry fully corresponded to the requirements of normative documents for this medical form. The results of chemical study showed, that main biologically active ingredients of new extraction drug of Laminaria Japanese are iodine (0,0263%) and alginic acid (26,71%). Moreover, produced dry extract is a valuable source of amino acids, including essentials, polysaccharides, organic acids, as well as macro-and microelements.
