It was studied effect of the lipid extract isolated from the tunic of the marine hydrobiont Halocynthia aurantium. It was evaluated its administration during hypothermia, hyperthermia, muscle load and the introduction of hexenal as well as its embryotoxic and teratogenic effects The impact of stress (vertical fixation of rats by the dorsal neck fold) was accompanied by an increase in plasma levels of total lipids, total cholesterol, cholesterol/phospholipid ratios and a decrease in total phospholipids, as well as by a change in the quantitative characteristics of classes of neutral and phospholipid. It was carried out a correction of the developed changes by a lipid extract of ascidia and a commercial reference preparation “Omega-3”. The lipid extract of H. aurantium showed a higher efficiency in restoring the lipid composition of the blood plasma under stress impact compared to the preparation “Omega-3” due to a wider range of neutral and phospholipid classes, polyunsaturated fatty acids of the n-3 and n-6 families. The tunica of ascidian can be used as a raw material for obtaining preparations with stress-protector and lipid-correcting properties.
