Journal Guide

Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering is an international bimonthly journal published by the Korean Society for Biotechnology and Bioengineering. Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering is devoted to the original and novel findings in the wide area of biotechnology and bioengineering which includes: Applied Biology, Biochemistry, Microbiology and Molecular Biology; Biomolecular Engineering, Biocatalysis & Biotransformation, and Metabolic Engineering; Bioseparation, Bioprocess Control and System Engineering; Nanobiotechnology, Biosensor and Bioelectronics, Cell Culture Engineering; Environmental Biotechnology; Food Biotechnology; Pharmaceutics; and Biomaterials.

Biotechnology for Biofuels is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal featuring high-quality studies describing technological and operational advances in the production of biofuels from biomass. 

Biotechnology for Food Future aims to be at the forefront of food biotechnology, focusing on the future of food. It seeks to publish cutting-edge research and innovative solutions that address the global challenges of food production, safety, and sustainability. The journal will serve as a platform for scientists, researchers, and industry professionals. 

The journal covers a broad range of topics related to the future of food, including but not limited to: 

• Advanced Genetic Engineering: Innovations in genetic modification to enhance crop yields, nutritional value, and resistance to environmental stresses, including boosting soil health. 

• Next-Generation Functional Foods: Development of foods with additional health benefits, such as probiotics, prebiotics, and nutraceuticals. This includes research on food microbiomes for health. 

• 3D Food Printing and other technological disruptions: New biotechnologies for customized food products with specific nutritional profiles, with impact on personalized nutrition and food design. 

• Sustainable Food Production: Techniques and technologies aimed at reducing the environmental impact of food production, including alternative protein sources like lab-grown meat and plant-based proteins. 

• Food Safety and Quality: Modern molecular, metabolic, and biochemical approaches to ensure the safety and quality of food products, including detection and prevention of foodborne pathogens. 

• Biotechnological Food Processing: Use of enzymatic and microbial processes to improve food processing and explore new methods of preservation. 

• Food Waste Management: Innovative methods to convert food waste into valuable bioproducts, contributing to a circular economy and enhance food waste remediation. 

• Bio-based Smart Packaging: Use of bio-based sustainable materials for developments in enhancing food safety, extending shelf life, and reducing waste.   

• Policy, public engagement, and society: Studies about effective food biotechnology policy bridging scientific innovation and societal values, ensuring transparency and trust, and insights on public understanding and approaches fostering informed choices and acceptance of food innovations in a rapidly evolving world. 

The journal also welcomes interdisciplinary research that bridges the gap between food biotechnology and other fields such as nutrition, agriculture, and environmental science. By fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange, the journal aims to drive the development of sustainable and innovative food solutions for the future. 

Researchers, practitioners, and policymakers in the fields of food science, biotechnology, agriculture, and nutrition will find the journal to be an invaluable resource for staying updated on the latest trends and breakthroughs in food biotechnology. 

Biotechnology for Food Future will be a new addition to the Biotechnology family of journals. 

Blood Cancer Journal is a peer-reviewed, online, open access, sister journal to the well-established and highly respected, Leukemia (2011 impact factor 9.561, Journal Citation Reports, Thomson Reuters, 2011), bringing to the fore outstanding pre-clinical and clinical research in the field of hematology, with ramifications into translational biology research down to new therapies. Topics of particular concentration will include, but are not limited to, the following:

Bone Marrow Transplantation publishes high quality, peer reviewed original research that addresses all aspects of basic biology and clinical use of haemopoietic stem cell transplantation.The broad scope of the journal thus encompasses topics such as stem cell biology, e.g., kinetics and cytokine control, transplantation immunology e.g., HLA and matching techniques, translational research, and clinical results of specific transplant protocols. Bone Marrow Transplantation publishes 12 issues a year.

Information Center for Science and Technology (JICST). Accepted manuscripts will be published within six months, after editorial and peer review and copy editing.

Boundary Value Problems is a peer-reviewed open access journal published under the brand SpringerOpen. The main aim of Boundary Value Problems is to provide a forum to promote, encourage, and bring together various disciplines which use the theory, methods, and applications of boundary value problems. Boundary Value Problems will publish very high quality research articles on boundary value problems for ordinary, functional, difference, elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic differential equations. Articles on singular, free, and ill-posed boundary value problems, and other areas of abstract and concrete analysis are welcome. In addition to regular research articles, Boundary Value Problems will publish review articles.

Boundary-Layer Meteorology publishes papers on the physical, chemical and biological processes occurring in the lowest few kilometres of the Earth's atmosphere. Boundary-Layer Meteorology has become the primary medium for the publication of theoretical, numerical and experimental studies of the atmospheric boundary layer over both land and sea surfaces.Subject areas covered in the journal include agriculture and forestry, air pollution, air-sea interaction, hydrology, micrometeorology, the planetary boundary layer, surface processes, mesoscale meteorology, numerical modelling of the lower atmosphere, remote sensing, and urban meteorology. Occasional special issues are published that cover a particular topic in great depth.
