Special, but not exclusive, attention will be given to papers dealing with genetic, molecular biology, and cellular aspects of the discipline.Research Areas Include:• Underlying mechanisms of autoimmunity • Immunologic • Molecular • Cellular • Genetic • VirologicAreas of Clinical Interest:• Rheumatology • Dermatology • Endocrinology • Nephrology • Haematology • Immunopharmacology
  • Journal of Immunological Methods

    • ISSN: 0022-1759
    The Journal of Immunological Methods is devoted to covering techniques for:(1) Quantitating and detecting antibodies and/or antigens. (2) Purifying immunoglobulins, lymphokines and other molecules of the immune system. (3) Isolating antigens and other substances important in immunological processes. (4) Labelling antigens and antibodies. (5) Localizing antigens and/or antibodies in tissues and cells. (6) Detecting, and fractionating immunocompetent cells. (7) Assaying for cellular immunity. (8) Documenting cell-cell interactions. (9) Initiating immunity and unresponsiveness. (10) Transplanting tissues. (11) Studying items closely related to immunity such as complement, reticuloendothelial system and others. (12) Molecular techniques for studying immune cells and their receptors. (13) Imaging of the immune system. (14) Methods for production or their fragments in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. (15) Computational methods including statistical and mathematical methods and computational models for analysis, visualization, and interpretation of results.Submitted full length manuscripts should describe new methods of broad applicability to immunology and not simply the application of an established method - although papers describing such applications may be considered for publication as a short Technical Note. Review articles will also be published by the Journal of Immunological Methods, but these manuscripts are by invitation only.

  • Cell

    • ISSN: 0092-8674
    Cell publishes findings of unusual significance in any area of experimental biology, including but not limited to cell biology, molecular biology, neuroscience, immunology, virology and microbiology, cancer, human genetics, systems biology, signaling, and disease mechanisms and therapeutics. The basic criterion for considering papers is whether the results provide significant conceptual advances into, or raise provocative questions and hypotheses regarding, an interesting and important biological question. In addition to primary research articles in four formats, Cell features review and opinion articles on recent research advances and issues of interest to its broad readership in the leading edge section.Visit the Cell Press website for more information about Cell - http://www.cell.com/...

  • Journal of Stored Products Research

    • ISSN: 0022-474X
    The Journal of Stored Products Research provides an international medium for the publication of both reviews and original results from laboratory and field research on all aspects of the preservation and safety of stored products along the supply chain starting from production to the consumer. The scope covers both durable commodities, and fresh fruits, vegetables, and freshly manufactured foodstuffs. Durable commodities are characterized by having relatively low moisture content and include raw and semi-processed foods such as grains, dried fruits, and animal feed, and other stored products such as timber, rubber, resins, clothing, and museum artefacts that are generally suitable for long-term storage. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and freshly manufactured foodstuffs (eg. bakery, sausages), are characterized by having high moisture contents but are stored over short to medium-term storage.Manuscripts are welcomed on: the biology, ecology, physiology, behaviour, taxonomy, and genetics of vertebrates (eg. rodents and birds) and invertebrate pests (eg. insects, mites) and microbial spoilage agents (eg. fungi, mold, yeast, and bacteria)environment... factors influencing the life cycles of the above-listed storage pests and spoilage agentsthe physical, chemical, and biological control of pests and spoilage agents, including the use of biologically producing compounds as preservatives with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activitiessubmission of manuscripts containing research on plant materials/botanicals are encouraged only if significant applied aspects are undertaken demonstrating their detailed chemical composition and long-term efficacy in the laboratory, supported by field application and the use of suitable controls: both negative/blank and positive (i.e., a compound of known activity)development of biochemical or behavioural resistance in pests to control measures and their managementstorage biotechnology, integrated pest management, and decision support systemsthe effects of physical, chemical, and environmental control procedures on the physical and chemical nature, besides quality parameters of the stored commoditiesthe assessment, prevention, and control of physical losses and preservation of quality of commodities during storage, and waste managementregulatory... technological, and socio-economic subjects relevant to stored productsNovel approaches in postharvest food engineering and manufacturing technologies, (eg.
