Laureates of the International Arbuzov Prize in the field of organophosphorus chemistry will receive 500 thousand rubles instead of the previous $5 thousand (approximately 425 thousand rubles). The corresponding changes to the decree were made by the rais of Tatarstan, Rustam Minnikhanov.

The International Arbuzov Prize was established on July 11, 1997 with the aim of developing chemical science in the republic, encouraging scientists for outstanding scientific works, discoveries and inventions in the field of organophosphorus chemistry, as well as perpetuating the memory of Alexander Arbuzov and Boris Arbuzov. It is awarded every two years in Kazan to a Russian or foreign scientist.
In 1997, in connection with the 120th anniversary of the birth of A.E. Arbuzov, two international Arbuzov Prizeswere awarded — one to a Russian and one to a foreign scientist.
