Neurotoxicology And Teratology

Journal Title：Neurotoxicology And Teratology

Neurotoxicology and Teratology provides a forum for publishing new information regarding the effects of chemical and physical agents on the developing, adult or aging nervous system. In this context, the fields of neurotoxicology and teratology include studies of agent-induced alterations of nervous system function, with a focus on behavioral outcomes and their underlying physiological and neurochemical mechanisms. The Journal publishes original, peer-reviewed Research Reports of experimental, clinical, and epidemiological studies that address the neurotoxicity and/or functional teratology of pesticides, solvents, heavy metals, nanomaterials, organometals, industrial compounds, mixtures, drugs of abuse, pharmaceuticals, animal and plant toxins, atmospheric reaction products, and physical agents such as radiation and noise. These reports include traditional mammalian neurotoxicology experiments, human studies, studies using non-mammalian animal models, and mechanistic studies in vivo or in vitro. Special Issues, Reviews, Commentaries, Meeting Reports, and Symposium Papers provide timely updates on areas that have reached a critical point of synthesis, on aspects of a scientific field undergoing rapid change, or on areas that present special methodological or interpretive problems. Theoretical Articles address concepts and potential mechanisms underlying actions of agents of interest in the nervous system. The Journal also publishes Brief Communications that concisely describe a new method, technique, apparatus, or experimental result.

《神经毒理学和畸形学》为发表有关化学和物理因素对发育、成人或衰老神经系统影响的新信息提供了一个论坛。在此背景下，神经毒理学和畸形学领域包括研究由药物引起的神经系统功能改变，重点关注行为结果及其潜在的生理和神经化学机制。该期刊发表原创、同行评审的研究报告，这些研究涉及杀虫剂、溶剂、重金属、纳米材料、有机金属、工业化合物、混合物、滥用药物、药物、动物和植物毒素、大气反应产物以及辐射和噪音等物理因素的神经毒性和/或功能畸形。这些报告包括传统的哺乳动物神经毒理学实验、人类研究、使用非哺乳动物模型的研究以及体内或体外的机制研究。特刊、评论、评注、会议报告和研讨会论文及时更新已达到关键综合点的领域、正在经历快速变化的科学领域或存在特殊方法或解释问题的领域。理论文章探讨神经系统中感兴趣的药剂作用的概念和潜在机制。该期刊还发表简明扼要地描述新方法、技术、设备或实验结果的简报。

Neurotoxicology And Teratology创刊于1987年，由Elsevier Inc.出版商出版，收稿方向涵盖医学 - 毒理学全领域，此刊是中等级别的SCI期刊，所以过审相对来讲不是特别难，但是该刊专业认可度不错，仍然是一本值得选择的SCI期刊 。平均审稿速度 较慢,6-12周 约12周，影响因子指数2.6，该期刊近期没有被列入国际期刊预警名单，广大学者值得一试。
