The influence of biologically active compounds on the functional state of the central nervous system and the emotional component in rats can be evaluated by using behavioral methods, which are based on studying the exploratory behavior of animals in an environment new to them. One such method is the study of animal behavior in an elevated cross-shaped maze with open and closed arms and the Porsolt "despair" test. The aim of our study was to investigate the emotional state of the offspring of rats treated with aqueous plant extracts of Centella asiatica, Ginkgo biloba, Eleuterococcus and a mixture of aqueous extracts of Centella asiatica and Ginkgo biloba. The study of the emotional state of the offspring of rats treated with aqueous plant extracts was performed on 3 month old animals obtained in the experiment from males (20 animals) and females (50 animals), which received aqueous plant extracts at a dose of 30 mg/100 g of the animal body weight, in the volume of 1 ml for 30 days. Conclusions: Aqueous extracts of Centella asiatica, Ginkgo biloba and Eleutherococcus have pronounced nootropic activity, as the evaluation of animal anxiety level in the Elevated Cross Maze test and depression level in the Porsolt Despair Behavior test show a significant difference in the behavior of intact rats and offspring rats, receiving aqueous plant extracts as an additional load and the most pronounced effect is observed with the complex application of extracts of Centella asiatica and Ginkgo biloba.
