Revista Argentina de Microbiología

Revista Argentina de Microbiología is the quarterly journal of the Asociación Argentina de Microbiología, founded in 1969 for microbiology and parasitology, with a 2025 Journal Impact Factor of 2.4 and a CiteScore of 3.7.《阿根廷微生物学杂志》是阿根廷微生物学会（Asociación Argentina de Microbiología）的季刊，1969 年创刊，覆盖微生物学与寄生虫学，2025 年期刊影响因子为 2.4，CiteScore 为 3.7。

Scope

• The stated aim is to publish current scientific work across the different areas of microbiology and parasitology, a remit written broadly enough to hold clinical and environmental papers side by side.官方宗旨是发表微生物学与寄生虫学各领域的当代科研工作，范围写得足够宽，临床稿件与环境稿件可以并置。
• Infections caused by bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses head the list of topics the editors consider of special interest, and that list opens the aims page before methods or taxonomy are mentioned.细菌、真菌、寄生虫与病毒所致的感染排在编辑特别关注的主题之首，这一串名单出现在宗旨页开头，诊断方法与分类学都排在它之后。
• Mechanisms of pathogenicity and virulence factors form a second strand, which gives molecular work on how bacteria, fungi and parasites damage host tissue a home in the title.致病机制与毒力因子构成第二条主线，细菌、真菌与寄生虫如何损伤宿主组织的分子研究因此有了落脚处。
• Resistance to antimicrobial agents is named as a subject of its own, which keeps surveillance and stewardship studies inside the remit of the journal rather than beside it.抗微生物药物耐药被单列为一个主题，监测与合理用药研究因此留在刊物范围之内，没有被推到边界之外。
• Taxonomy holds a place of its own in the aims, so new species descriptions, reclassifications and type-strain work sit alongside hospital-based clinical studies of infection.分类学在宗旨中占有一席，新种描述、重新归类与模式菌株工作因此与医院临床研究并列。
• Epidemiology appears beside taxonomy in the aims, and the same sentence lists phenotypic, immunological and molecular diagnostic methods.流行病学与分类学并列出现，同一句还列出表型、免疫学与分子诊断方法。
• Microbial ecology and diversity are named in their own right, which brings community studies, environmental sampling and biodiversity surveys within reach of a title centred on infection.微生物生态与多样性被单独立项，群落研究、环境取样与生物多样性调查因此也进入这份以感染为中心的刊物。
• Zoo- and phytopathogens are named as well, so veterinary bacteriology, plant pathology and the microbiology of crops and livestock all fall inside the stated scope of the journal.动物与植物病原同样在列，兽医细菌学、植物病理学以及作物与畜禽微生物学都落在宗旨划定的范围之内。
• Microorganisms of value for food, agronomic, industrial and environmental applications are covered as applied work, which widens the title's readership to agronomy, food technology and environmental engineering.对食品、农业、工业与环境应用有价值的微生物按应用研究收录，读者面由此扩至农学、食品工艺与环境工程。
• Microbial genomics, proteomics and enzymology are named so that basic research has a footing in the title, and work with regional impact is welcomed in the same sentence.微生物基因组学、蛋白质组学与酶学被点名，基础研究因此在刊内有立足之地，具区域影响的稿件在同一句里一并获邀。
• A guide entry adds unconventional infectious agents to the list, a heading broad enough to take in agents that do not fit the bacterial or viral categories.指南条目把非寻常感染因子补进名单，这一提法的覆盖面足以纳入不属于细菌与病毒类别的感染因子。
• Work is sorted into five subject sections, which run from general microbiology and clinical microbiology with infectious diseases through antimicrobial agents to food microbiology and, finally, agricultural, environmental and industrial microbiology.稿件按五个栏目分流，从普通微生物学与临床微生物学及感染性疾病，经抗微生物药物，到食品微生物学，最后是农业、环境与工业微生物学。
• Editorials are capped at 1,200 words and five references, the shortest form on the list, while special articles close the six accepted types without a stated length in the guide.社论上限为 1200 词与 5 条参考文献，是清单里最短的一类，特稿则为六种稿件类型收尾，指南未设字数上限。
• Original articles may run to 8,000 words including every section, carry no more than six tables or figures, and must supply the title and abstract in Spanish as well as English.原创论文连各章节在内不超过 8000 词，图表合计不超过 6 个，题名与摘要须同时提供西班牙语与英语两版。
• Brief reports allow 3,000 words, 15 references and three tables or figures, are written without internal headings, and take in case reports and descriptions of new techniques or equipment.简报限 3000 词、15 条参考文献、3 个图表，行文不分小节，病例报告与新技术或新设备的描述都归入这一类。
• Microbiological images hold their text to 300 words, while letters to the editor stop at 500 words, five references and a single table or figure, with no abstract required.微生物图像稿的正文压在 300 词以内，读者来信则止于 500 词、5 条参考文献与 1 个图表，且不要求摘要。
• The board reserves the right to reject work that overlaps published papers or falls outside the title's topics, and it also cites editorial non-compliance, ethical breaches, weak science and poor language.编委会有权退回与已发表论文重叠或与本刊主题无关的稿件，不合编辑要求、违反伦理、科学性不足与语言欠佳同样列在退稿理由之中。

History

• The Asociación Argentina de Microbiología founded the title in 1969 and has published it ever since, a run of more than five decades without a change of name.阿根廷微生物学会于 1969 年创办这份刊物并一直出版至今，五十余年里刊名没有改过。
• Volume numbering fixes the launch year, because the volume dated 2020 carries the number fifty-two and nothing in the sequence points to a restart at any later date.卷号给出了创刊年的旁证，标注 2020 年的那一卷是第 52 卷，序列中没有重新起卷的痕迹。
• One volume covers one calendar year and four issues fill it, dated in quarters from January to December in the Spanish manner used on the contents page.一卷对应一个日历年，四期把这一卷填满，期号按季度标注，从 1 月排到 12 月，沿用西班牙语的分段写法。
• The citation pattern pairs a volume with a running article number instead of a page range, so a 2027 paper may be cited as volume fifty-nine, article 100758, before the volume closes.每篇论文另配一个连续文章号，2027 年那一卷已排到第 100758 号，而该卷的季度分册尚未出齐。
• The society publishes the title while Elsevier España runs the website and the publishing platform, and the copyright line names that Spanish branch rather than the society itself.刊物由学会出版，网站与发布平台由 Elsevier España 运营，版权行写的是这家西班牙分支而非学会本身。
• From 1 July 2025 only English manuscripts are accepted, and the title and abstract must still appear in Spanish, so every article keeps a Spanish entry point for indexing.2025 年 7 月 1 日起只接受英文稿，题名与摘要仍须附西班牙语，每篇文章都保留一个西班牙语入口以便检索。
• The title is fully open access, and because no subscription charges are levied, an article publishing charge falls instead on the authors, their institutions or their funders.全刊开放获取，不收订阅费，文章出版费由作者、其所在机构或资助方承担。
• Authors choose between CC BY and CC BY-NC-ND, and a funder that insists on the first can switch the licence after acceptance rather than at the point of submission.作者在 CC BY 与 CC BY-NC-ND 之间二选一，资助方要求前者的，可在录用后改选，投稿时不必先定。
• Indexing runs through Science Citation Index Expanded, MEDLINE, Scopus and the Directory of Open Access Journals, with SJR and SNIP supplied as metrics rather than as databases.收录覆盖 Science Citation Index Expanded、MEDLINE、Scopus 与 Directory of Open Access Journals，SJR 与 SNIP 属于计量而非数据库。
• Clarivate gives the title a 2025 Journal Impact Factor of 2.4 and a five-year figure of 2.1, while Scopus returns a CiteScore of 3.7 and the SJR and SNIP values sit at 0.470 and 0.753.Clarivate 给出的 2025 年期刊影响因子为 2.4，五年影响因子为 2.1，Scopus 的 CiteScore 为 3.7，SJR 与 SNIP 分别为 0.470 与 0.753。
• Journal Citation Reports puts the title at position 119 of 167 in the microbiology category, a Q3 placing, with a Journal Citation Indicator of 0.47 and a percentile rank of 29 overall.期刊引证报告把该刊排在微生物学类目 167 种刊物的第 119 位，属 Q3，期刊引证指标为 0.47，百分位为 29。
• Output averages about 48 articles a year, total citations stand at 1147 and the cited half-life is 6.4 years, with one hundred per cent of the content in gold open access.年发文约 48 篇，总被引 1147 次，被引半衰期 6.4 年，全部内容走金色开放获取。
• Successive impact factors in the Journal Citation Reports table run 2.029 in 2022, 1.8 in 2023, 2.1 in 2024 and 2.4 in 2025, so the series dips once and then recovers above its opening value.近四年影响因子依次为 2022 年 2.029、2023 年 1.8、2024 年 2.1、2025 年 2.4，中间回落一次后重新越过起点。

• Review is double anonymized, so authors and referees stay hidden from each other, and a submission must arrive as a title page plus a separate anonymized manuscript.评审为双向匿名，作者与审稿人互不知情，投稿须拆成题名页与匿名正文两个文件。
• The editor first judges suitability, then sends the paper to at least two independent experts, and the decision that follows rests with the editor and is final.编辑先判断稿件是否合适，再把通过的稿件送给至少两位独立专家，随后的录用与否由编辑裁定，结果为终局。
• Files go through Editorial Manager, and the title subscribes to the Committee on Publication Ethics, whose principles govern how misconduct cases, corrections and retractions are handled in practice.稿件经 Editorial Manager 提交，刊物是出版伦理委员会（COPE）成员，行为不端、更正与撤稿都按该委员会的原则处理。
• Speed is a selling point on the publisher's metrics panel, where the median first decision takes 14 days, review runs to 68 days and an accepted paper appears online 49 days after acceptance.出版方指标栏把速度当作卖点，首次决定的中位时间为 14 天，审稿 68 天，录用后 49 天在线。
• Board members come from CONICET institutes, INTA stations, national universities and the ANLIS Malbrán reference laboratory, and the guide keeps Elsevier's general terms on authorship, data and generative AI.编委来自 CONICET 各研究所、INTA 试验站、国立大学与 ANLIS Malbrán 参比实验室，指南另沿用 Elsevier 关于作者贡献、数据与生成式人工智能的通用条款。
