  • Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior

    • ISSN: 0091-3057
    Pharmacology Biochemistry & Behavior publishes original reports in the areas of pharmacology and biochemistry in which the primary emphasis and theoretical context are behavioral. Contributions may involve clinical, preclinical, or basic research. Purely biochemical or toxicology studies will not be published.Papers describing the behavioral effects of novel drugs in models of psychiatric, neurological and cognitive disorders, and central pain must include a positive control unless the paper is on a disease where such a drug is not available yet.Papers focusing on physiological processes (e.g., peripheral pain mechanisms, body temperature regulation, seizure activity) are not accepted as we would like to retain the focus of Pharmacology Biochemistry & Behavior on behavior and its interaction with the biochemistry and neurochemistry of the central nervous system.Papers describing the effects of plant materials are generally not considered, unless the active ingredients are studied, the extraction method is well described, the doses tested are known, and clear and definite experimental evidence on the mechanism of action of the active ingredients is provided.

  • Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications

    • ISSN: 0006-291X
    Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications (BBRC) is the premier international journal devoted to the very rapid dissemination of timely and significant experimental results in diverse fields of biological research. For short communication papers, we offer the fastest submission to acceptance of any journal within life sciences, with "accept" decisions rendered within three weeks of submission. We also consider full-length research papers and review articles.The journal covers most of areas of life science: BiochemistryBiophysi... biologyCellular pathology and cancerComputational biology and bioinformaticsGeneti... and inflammationMicrobio... and virologyNanomedicine and bionanomaterialsNeur... BiologyStructural biologyBBRC does not typically publish clinical reports or studies primarily focused on associations in patient samples or treatment and observation of human subjects. Theoretical studies or studies based on pure and applied mathematics are considered out of scope.BBRC’s expectations for research using natural products, in particular studies on compounds or mixtures of compounds (e.g., herbal extracts), are that evidence demonstrating similar activity of purified component(s) of that extract must be provided and that the percentage of purity must be stated (as per guidance provided in https://bpspubs.onli... see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.

  • Biochimie

    • ISSN: 0300-9084
    An International Journal of Biochemistry and Molecular BiologyPublished under the auspices of the Société Française de Biochimie et Biologie Moléculaire.Biochimi... publishes original research articles, short communications, review articles, graphical reviews, mini-reviews, and hypotheses in the broad areas of biology, including biochemistry, enzymology, molecular and cell biology, metabolic regulation, genetics, immunology, microbiology, structural biology, genomics, proteomics, and molecular mechanisms of disease. Biochimie publishes exclusively in English.Articles are subject to peer review, and must satisfy the requirements of originality, high scientific integrity and general interest to a broad range of readers. Submissions that are judged to be of sound scientific and technical quality but do not fully satisfy the requirements for publication in Biochimie may benefit from a transfer service to a more suitable journal within the same subject area.

  • Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews

    • ISSN: 1359-6101
    Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews publishes focused research reviews (state-of-the-art reviews, correspondence, perspectives, meeting reviews) devoted to important advances in fields of cytokine and growth factor research. Major emphasis will be placed on reviews that detail molecular mechanistic analysis of diverse areas of biomedical research, including cytokine regulation of immune responses, innate immunity, viral pathogenesis, inflammatory disorders including neuroinflammation, growth regulation in cancer, cytokines in the tumor microenvironment and cytokine-guided immunotherapeutic strategies. Priority will be given to those reviews with a focused expert perspective, provided by scientific leaders in their respective areas of research. Broad literature reviews with an overview perspective rather than a research focus should consider other Elsevier venues.

  • Soil Biology & Biochemistry

    • ISSN: 0038-0717
    AIMS Soil Biology & Biochemistry publishes original, scientifically challenging research articles of international significance that describe and provide insight into biological processes occurring in soil. These include the possible applications of such knowledge to issues of soil and environmental quality - insofar as such studies inform our understanding of the role of soil biology and biochemistry in mediating soil functions, agricultural sustainability and ecosystem services. The ecology and biochemical processes of soil organisms, their effects on the environment and their interactions with plants are major topics. The applications of new molecular, microscopic and analytical techniques to understanding and explaining population and community dynamics is of great interest. The journal also publishes state-of-the-art reviews of contemporary research that present significant and novel hypotheses, as well as comments and arguments about specific and often controversial aspects of life in the soil.SCOPE The scope of Soil Biology & Biochemistry publishes scientific research articles of international significance which describe and explain fundamental biological and biochemical features and processes occurring in soil systems.The emphasis is on original research which substantively advances or directs our understanding of the mechanistic basis of how soils function. Articles may involve applications of basic knowledge to applied issues if they provide distinct insight into the role of soil biology and biochemistry in regulating soil functions. Some examples of major topics include:The ecology of all soil organisms (including viruses)How soil biology interacts with soil physical and chemical properties and processes to regulate belowground functionsRelationshi... and functional interactions between soil biota and plantsThe effects of soil organisms on ecosystem dynamics across spatial and temporal scalesSBB also emphasizes the application of molecular, microscopic, and analytical techniques and modelling approaches to understand, explain and visualise soil functioning. Technique-focused papers must involve a particularly high degree of novelty or significance.In addition, the journal publishes state-of-the-art reviews that consider contemporary research and synthesise knowledge to provide enhanced understanding of biotic roles in soil system functioning.The Editors-in-Chief do not accept pre-submission enquiries to determine if a manuscript is likely to be of interest to the journal. Please submit your paper straight to the platform for consideration.
