The invention relates to the fishing industry, namely to the conservation of the sturgeon roe obtained in intravital method. The method of conservation of ovulated sturgeon roe includes obtaining of the roe, salt curing, flowing down and prepackaging, moreover, before the salt curing the roe is separated from the ovarian fluid, then it is put on the sieve with the layer height of not more than 10 cm, and the salt curing is carried out for 4-6 minutes by sequential immersion of the sieve with the roe in the containers with saline solution of density of 1.15-1.17 and 1.07-1.09 kg/m 3 and temperature of 68°-65° and 45°-40°, followed by the processing with water at temperature of not higher than 10°C, whereby flowing down is carried out after each immersion of the sieve with the roe in saline solutions and processing. The method allows to simplify the obtaining of the finished product from the ovulated sturgeon roe, to improve the roe quality and preserve it within the period which exceeds the shelf life specified in the requirements of GOST 7442-2002 "Grain sturgeon caviar" - 2,5 months at the temperature from minus 2 to minus 4°C.
