Metrics
“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.

The AI Journal Finder ranks the best-matched journals for your paper’s topic — with tier, open access, citation rate and predatory flags. Free to start.
Indexing & access
Access status: unknown. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.

Frequently asked
Is Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews appears in: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews?
Papers in Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews are cited about 10.3 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 316. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews in Q1 for its subject category. Quartiles split the journals in a field into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews is cited about 10.3 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 316. A journal is ranked per subject category, so one spanning several fields can sit in different quartiles depending on the category.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q1, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews open access?
We hold no reliable open-access classification for Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.
