Research areas of the most cited articles at Grasas Y Aceites:

The journal articles focus largely on the fields of Food science, Botany, Chromatography, Fatty acid and Olive oil. The most cited publications explore issues in Food science which can be linked to other research areas like Tocopherol and Antioxidant. The most cited publications focus on Botany but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Campesterol, Horticulture and Fatty acid composition.

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

  • Enzyme
  • Food science
  • Organic chemistry

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The journal was organized to reinforce research efforts on Food science, Fatty acid, Antioxidant, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and DPPH. It holds forums on Food science that merges themes from other disciplines such as Tocopherol, Induction period and Linoleic acid. Lipid oxidation and Vitamin E are some topics wherein Linoleic acid research discussed in Grasas Y Aceites have an impact.

In Grasas Y Aceites, Biodiesel, Catalysis, Malondialdehyde and High-performance liquid chromatography, Chromatography are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Fatty acid research. The tackled Polyunsaturated fatty acid research is interrelated with Fatty acid composition which concerns subjects like PEAR and Cactus. The concepts on DPPH presented in it can also apply to other research fields, including Antimicrobial, Horticulture, Coconut oil, Sunflower oil and Flacourtia inermis.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Cold-pressed cactus pear seed oil: Quality and stability (4 citations)
  • Shelf-life of Moroccan prickly pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) and argan (Argania spinosa) oils: a comparative study (4 citations)
  • The impact of different levels of nisin as a biopreservative agent on the chemical, sensory and microbiological quality of vacuum-packed sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) fillets stored at 4 ± 2 °C (3 citations)

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing in Grasas Y Aceites (based on the number of publications) are:

  • M. C. Dobarganes (46 papers) absent at the last edition,

  • Gloria Márquez-Ruiz (25 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • C. Gomez Herrera (23 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Daniel Barrera-Arellano (22 papers) absent at the last edition.

The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing in Grasas Y Aceites (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Spanish National Research Council (285 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • University of Seville (53 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • State University of Campinas (41 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • University of Chile (34 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Cairo University (28 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition.

The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.

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, 21.43% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 9.09% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 21.21% of all publications and 69.70% 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.
