I did not find IF in the website BioxBio for this journals but in their website they have claimed to have an IF of 5.8. Also did not find IF in the 2022 SCIE list (PDF) released by Web of Science.
Have found in both SCIMAGO and MJL of Clarivate.
Please help to clarify.
Thank you very much.
Dear Sheikh Sunzid Ahmed
The journal “Bioinformatics and Biology Insights” is nowadays published by a trusted publisher and therefor you can trust the info stated on their indexing info (https://journals.sagepub.com/metrics/BBI ).
The ‘confusion’ about the impact factor is due to the changed status of an ESCI indexed journal. Since 2023 ESCI indexed journals receive an impact factor as well https://clarivate.com/news/clarivate-announces-changes-to-the-2023-journal-citation-reports/ This a well-indexed and good journal.
I see only one disadvantage: the APC is quite high 2650 USD according to
https://doaj.org/toc/1177-9322
But the answer to your question is yes they an impact factor.
Best regards.
PS. Unfortunately there is no real (publicly available) list of impact factors of ESCI list. Apparently Clarivate managed to protect this (behind a paywall) info better than previous years. Although the info is (most of the time) correct I do not trust the BioxBio site, this info is protected property of Clarivate and no contact info can be found about who is behind this site.
Rob Keller Sir, thank you very much for the detailed explanations and useful links. It was very helpful. Thank you so much.
