We used the equations of state (EoS) of dense nuclear matter to construct the macroscopic properties of neutron stars and test them using available observational results. The Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock mean field calculations approximated by their parameterized form are the basis of our calculations for the star interior. We calculated the central pressure, density, radius and mass both without and with allowance for hyperons, and compared these results with astronomical observations.
