How Influential is Molecular Microbiology?
Molecular Microbiology is the 122nd out of 593 Microbiology journals. This Journal is the 852nd out of 5,258 Biology journals. This means the journal is among the top 17% in the discipline of Biology. This Journal is the 1251st out of 8,993 Life Sciences journals. This means the journal is among the top 14% in the science branch of Life Sciences.
How are inpact factors calculated?
The impact factor (IF) is calculated by counting citations from peer-reviewed journals only.
extended IF also counts citations from books and conference papers. However, no patent, abstract, working papers, online documents, etc., are covered.
