This work presents literature data from studies to determine the influence of environmental factors on the biophysical and toxicological characteristics of the venom of the Transcaucasian viper, as well as to identify the degree of influence of pollutants, ionizing and electromagnetic radiation on the activity of zootoxin. The results of the influence of heavy metals on the spectral characteristics of viper venom, data on the study of the activity of radionuclides in the venom of viper, caught from various biotopes of Azerbaijan, data on the study of the influence of γ-radiation on the physic-chemical properties of viper venom, toxicity, on spectral-luminescent properties and kinetics are presented. luminescence, on the biophysical and pharmacological properties of viper venom. Data from studies on the production of heterocontact indium monoselenide (InSe) of p-type conductivity with crystals of snake venom are presented, electrical characteristics are given, as well as results on the influence of indium monoselenide (InSe) on the biophysical characteristics of snake venom, and conditions for radiation sterilization of viper venom are given.
