IABS International Journal

 

BIOLOGICALS

Biologicals is a major international journal devoted to the timely publication of broad-ranging reports relevant to the development, preparation and quality control of biologicals used in human and veterinary medicine. The journal is also an important forum for debate and news concerning all aspects of the preparation, standardization and regulatory requirements of biological products. Reports on biologicals derived from novel technologies such as gene-therapy products, and on contemporary issues such as the use of bovine sera, combined vaccines, etc, are especially encouraged.

Three types of paper are acceptable: original research reports, short papers and review articles dealing with topics of current interest. In addition, the journal will assure prompt publication of comments and letters to the editor, book reviews, meeting and patent/licence reports, and information on regulatory requirements and other new publications.

Topics of interest relevant to biologicals for human and veterinary use include:
• Bacterial vaccines
• Biological therapeutics
• Blood products
• Cell biology
• Cell culture technology
• Cellular immunology
• Cytokines and
allied mediators
• Diagnostics
• Downstream processing
• Gene transfer and expression
• General bacteriology
• General virology, endogenous and adventitious viruses
• Hormones
• Immunochemistry
• Molecular biology
• Monoclonal antibodies
• Parasitology
• Prions and transmissible spongiform encephalopathies
• Protein chemistry
• Toxins
• Toxoids
• Viral vaccines

Editor-in-Chief: Dr.Girish Vyas (USA)

After many years of publication as a quarterly journal, Biologicals is now published at bimonthy intervals. To activate access to Biologicals, please download and follow the instructions on this pdf document.
