Journal of Virological Methods

Covering methodology and basic science

The Journal of Virological Methods focuses on original, high quality research papers that describe novel and comprehensively tested methods which enhance human, animal, plant, bacterial or environmental virology and prions research and discovery.

The methods may include, but not limited to, the study of:

• Viral components and morphology

• Virus isolation, propagation and development of viral vectors

• Viral pathogenesis, oncogenesis, vaccines and antivirals

• Virus replication, host-pathogen interactions and responses

• Virus transmission, prevention, control and treatment

• Viral metagenomics and virome

• Virus ecology, adaption and evolution

• Applied virology such as nanotechnology

• Viral diagnosis with novelty and comprehensive evaluation

We seek articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses and laboratory protocols that include comprehensive technical details with statistical confirmations that provide validations against current best practice, international standards or quality assurance programs and which advance knowledge in virology leading to improved medical, veterinary or agricultural practices and management.
