Aims and Scope

Journal of Advanced Natural Product Research (JANPR) is a peer-reviewed international open access journal that invites original research, review and short reports in all areas of natural products from microorganisms, plants, and animals on land and in water. 

 

JANPR also covers a wide range of topics involving the isolation, structure elucidation, biosynthesis and chemical synthesis of secondary metabolites, from plants, animals and microbes including biotechnological and pharmacological applications. However, manuscripts relating to the crude extracts and ethnobotany, are not suitable for publication in this journal without strong pharmacological experiments. The fingerprinting analyses of the natural products are also encouraging to JANPR.  

Studies employing molecular docking are encouraged, but they must be backed by experimental results. Manuscripts entirely theoretical or computational in character are not considered by the JANPR.

The journal operates a double-blind peer review policy. Every article will be freely and indefinitely accessible online. Articles are published as soon as possible after acceptance and in 3 issues of a volume per year.

 

Topics covered include, but are not limited to:

§  Analytical methods

§  Bioactivity and SAR

§  Biochemical studies,

§  Biological activities of the crude extracts (supports by the structurally characterized pure isolates).
