His main scientific works were dedicated to the study of the biochemistry of
vitamins, muscular activity, biochemistry of the brain and nervous system,
metabolism (intracellular carbohydrate and phosphorus exchange), issues of comparative biochemistry of nervous tissue and brain under different functional states. He synthesized an analogue of
vitamin K – viсasol, which found wide application in medicine for the treatment of
avitaminosis, for accelerating
wound healing, and stopping bleeding. He established the biochemical structure of nervous tissue, investigated the characteristics of protein,
nucleic acid, and carbohydrate-phosphorus compound metabolism in nervous tissue during excitation and inhibition of the central nervous system using labeled atoms, as well as ion transport processes in nervous system structures. == References ==
