Molecular and Cellular Probes

Top Research Topics at Molecular and Cellular Probes?

The journal is organized to address concerns in the fields of Molecular biology, Polymerase chain reaction, Genetics, Virology and Gene. The Molecular biology works featured in it incorporate elements from Hybridization probe, Oligonucleotide, DNA, Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Primer (molecular biology). Many of the studies tackled connect Hybridization probe with a similar field of study like Molecular probe.

Research on DNA presented in Molecular and Cellular Probes concerns the broader topic of Biochemistry. genomic DNA, Southern blot and Microbiology are some topics wherein Polymerase chain reaction research discussed in it have an impact. The journal facilitates discussions on Microbiology that incorporate concepts from other fields like Escherichia coli, Virulence and Bacteria.

Allele, Genotype, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Exon and Restriction fragment length polymorphism are among the concentrations of Genetics that garnered much attention in it. The main emphasis of the journal is the subject of Genotype, focusing on Genotyping. While Virology is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of TaqMan, Multiplex, RNA and Nested polymerase chain reaction.

Research areas of the most cited articles at Molecular and Cellular Probes:

The journal papers explore disciplines such as Molecular biology, Polymerase chain reaction, Microbiology, Genetics and Virology. Issues in Molecular biology were discussed in the most cited papers, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Hybridization probe, DNA, Multiplex polymerase chain reaction, Multiple displacement amplification and Real-time polymerase chain reaction. While Polymerase chain reaction is the key highlight in the journal papers, thet also covered some subjects on Ribosomal RNA and 16S ribosomal RNA.

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

• Gene
• DNA
• Bacteria

The previous edition focused in particular on these issues:

The concepts of Virology, Gene, DNA, Molecular biology and Virus are tackled in Molecular and Cellular Probes. The studies in Virology featured incorporate elements of Pcr assay, Reverse transcriptase, Real-time polymerase chain reaction and Loop-mediated isothermal amplification. The Gene works featured in Molecular and Cellular Probes incorporate elements from Identification (biology) and Microbiology.

The featured DNA research zeroes in on concepts in genomic DNA but also tackles themes under Authentication. While it focused on Molecular biology, it was also able to explore topics like Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Superoxide dismutase, Nucleic acid, Detection limit and TaqMan. The close relationship between Potato virus Y and RNA is one of the points of interest dissected in Polymerase chain reaction research.

The most cited articles from the last journal are:

• Nanobodies, the potent agents to detect and treat the Coronavirus infections: A systematic review. (6 citations)
• Computational formulation and immune dynamics of a multi-peptide vaccine candidate against Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus. (4 citations)
• DNA/Nano based advanced genetic detection tools for authentication of species: Strategies, prospects and limitations. (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.

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, 4.26% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 6.67% 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 15.56% of all publications and 77.78% 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.
