Overview

Top Research Topics at Electrophoresis?

Electrophoresis aims to foster the development of research in Chromatography, Capillary electrophoresis, Analytical chemistry, Electrophoresis and Molecular biology. Electrophoresis holds forums on Chromatography that merges themes from other disciplines such as Gel electrophoresis, Capillary action and Isoelectric focusing. In addition to Gel electrophoresis research, it aims to explore topics under Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and Gel electrophoresis of proteins.

The in-depth study on Isoelectric focusing also explores topics in the intersecting field of Isoelectric point. The journal facilitates discussions on Capillary electrophoresis that incorporate concepts from other fields like Fluorescence, Electrolyte, Analyte, Resolution (mass spectrometry) and Enantiomer. Enantiomer and Cyclodextrin are closely related fields of research discussed in it.

The research on Analytical chemistry tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Microfluidics, Electrode and Polymer. Issues in Electrophoresis were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Sodium dodecyl sulfate, Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, DNA and Polyacrylamide.

  • Chromatography (48.65%)
  • Capillary electrophoresis (26.23%)
  • Analytical chemistry (24.21%)

What are the most cited papers published in the journal?

  • SWISS-MODEL and the Swiss-PdbViewer: an environment for comparative protein modeling. (9533 citations)
  • Probability-based protein identification by searching sequence databases using mass spectrometry data. (7211 citations)
  • Improved silver staining of plant proteins, RNA and DNA in polyacrylamide gels (3784 citations)

Research areas of the most cited articles at Electrophoresis:

The journal articles mostly deal with topics like Chromatography, Capillary electrophoresis, Analytical chemistry, Electrophoresis and Gel electrophoresis. While Chromatography is the focus of the journal publications, it also provides insights into the studies of Isoelectric focusing and Capillary action. The studies on Electrophoresis discussed at the most cited publications can also contribute to research in the domains of Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Polyacrylamide.

What topics the last edition of the journal is best known for?

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The topics of Chromatography, Capillary electrophoresis, Microfluidics, Electrophoresis and Electrokinetic phenomena are the focal point of discussions in Electrophoresis. Electrophoresis concentrated on Chromatography research, specifically Mass spectrometry, Detection limit, Sample preparation, Analyte and Repeatability. While it focused on Capillary electrophoresis, it was also able to explore topics like Electrolyte, Enantiomer and Capillary action.

The journal explores the study of Microfluidics to improve our understanding of the broader topic of Nanotechnology. Most of the works presented in it deals with Electrophoresis but it intersects with the subject of Zeta potential. Some problems in Electrokinetic phenomena that were presented in the journal overlapped with concepts under Chemical physics and Mechanics.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • CE-MS for metabolomics: Developments and applications in the period 2018-2020. (14 citations)

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2021 edition, 4.69% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 10.98% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 4.92% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 7.58% of all publications and 76.52% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
