Impact Factor Of Glycomics & Lipidomics
Glycomics is an applied science used to research the structure and function of carbohydrates (sugar) in the biological system. Lipidomics provides a complete profile of biological molecules, including
cells , tissues or organisms: proteins / amino acids , sugars and nucleic acids. Research in lipidomics involves the recognition and quantification of thousands of molecular cell lipid organisms and their interactions with other lipids , proteins and other metabolites. The impact factor of the Glycomics & Lipidomics Journal is a metric that represents the total number of citations to recent papers published in the journal. This is also used as a metric for the relative importance of a journal within its area, with
journals with higher impact factors considered to be more important than those with lower impacts. A journal may adopt editorial policies to increase its impact factor. For example,
journals may publish a larger percentage of
review articles that are generally cited more than research reports. Consequently, the
review articles may increase the impact factor of the journal and the review
journals will therefore often have the highest impact factors in their respective fields.
