Bioprospecting

As per available reports about 49 journals, 8 Conferences and workshops are presently dedicated exclusively to bioprospecting and about 474 articles are being published on the current trends in bioprospecting. In terms of research annually, USA, India, Japan, Brazil and Canada are some of the leading countries where maximum studies related to bioprospecting are being carried out. As reported in the above mentioned 474 articles, Living organisms produce biopolymers and they are also called as polymeric biomolecules. Medicinal drugs and other compounds which are commercially valuable are obtained from animal and plant species. The search for the above mentioned drugs and compounds is called bioprospecting and also the search for traditional medicines from unknown organisms which are never been used.

The Journal of Biochemistry & Pharmacology: Open Access is an academic journal – hosted by OMICS International – a pioneer in open access publishing–and is listed among the top 10 journals in bioprospecting. Each year research scientists have noticed a rise in the number of congresses being held in this field. Biochemistry & Pharmacology provides a unique platform to researchers and scientist to explore the advanced and latest research developments in the field of Biochemistry & Pharmacology, thus bridging the gap between researchers and young scientists.

OMICS International–a pioneer in organizing international conferences is about to conduct a conference on 3^rd International Conference on Medicinal Chemistry & Computer Aided Drug Designing December 08-10, 2014 San Francisco, USA. OMICS Group organizes over 100 Scientific Conferences all over the globe annually with the support from various scientific associations and 20,000 editorial board members. Since its inception, OMICS Group has focused on meeting the needs of the scientific community, through strong tie-up with business and industry, while at the same time accomplishing international benchmarks and accreditation standards.
