ISAC Journals
ISAC has two scholarly journals - the International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents (IJAA) and open access journal, the Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance (JGAR).
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents
One of ISAC’s principal activities is production of the International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents (IJAA) in collaboration with the publisher Elsevier.
IJAA is edited by Prof. Jian Li, Australia.
The Impact Factor is 4.9 (© Clarivate Analytics).
The journal provides comprehensive and up-to-date peer reviewed reference information on the physical, pharmacological, in vitro and clinical properties of individual antimicrobial agents. In addition, it signals new trends and developments in the field through highly authoritative review articles on antimicrobial agents, immunomodulators and immunotherapy. Special attention is given to articles providing insight into the problems of antimicrobial resistance, local as well as worldwide, both in the hospital and in the community.
