Research areas of the most cited articles at Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology:

The journal publications focus largely on the fields of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), Pandemic, Coronavirus, Biochemistry and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). While Pandemic is the focus of the journal articles, it also provides insights into the studies of Severity assessment, Case fatality rate and Risk of death. While the most cited papers focused on Coronavirus, they were also able to explore topics like Virus, Food safety, Food handlers and Food service.

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

  • Bacteria
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology facilitates discussions on Microbiology, Food science, Internal medicine, Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and Bacteria. Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology connects the study in Microbiology with the closely related area of Staphylococcus aureus. Tertiary care is a major topic of Internal medicine research presented in the journal.

It tackles research in Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) as part of the general discipline of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), however, it also discusses concepts in Download.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

  • Regulatory Action of all trans Retinoic Acid on Metastasis Induced lung Cell Metabolic Changes during Implantation of B16F10 Cancer Cells in C57BL6 Mice (1 citations)
  • Extraction of Chitosan from Crab Shell and Fungi and Its Antibacterial Activity against Urinary Tract Infection Causing Pathogens (1 citations)
  • Production of Bacterial Cellulose from Acetobacter Species and Its Applications – A Review (1 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 Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Kuldeep Dhama (20 papers) absent at the last edition,
  • Hafiz M.N. Iqbal (15 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 11 less than at the previous edition,

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, 97.31% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 0.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 80.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 0.00% of all publications and 20.00% 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.
