Abstract
The paper is a summary and general analysis of optical spectroscopic data on 257 Byurakan-IRAS Galaxies (BIG objects) obtained with the BAO 2.6-m, SAO 6-m, OHP 1.93-m telescopes and taken from SDSS spectroscopic database. 149 star-formation regions galaxies, 42 galaxies with active nuclei, and 28 galaxies with a composite spectrum were identified. The spectra of 21 galaxies show signs of emission, but without the possibility of more precise determination of their activity type, 13 galaxies appear to have star formation rates that do not exceed normal, and 3 are absorption galaxies.
