Journal Indexing
Visibility and discoverability for Journal of Advanced Pharmaceutical Science and Technology (JAPST).
Global reach for pharmaceutical research
Indexing ensures that published articles are discoverable by researchers, clinicians, and industry professionals. JAPST invests in metadata quality, DOI registration, and structured content delivery so your research is easy to find, cite, and reuse.
Coverage across indexing and discovery services can vary over time. If you need confirmation for a specific service, contact [email protected].

ISSN: 2328-0182 | DOI prefix: 10.14302/issn.2328-0182 | License: CC BY 4.0 | Open access publishing.
Identifiers and metadata
Every JAPST article receives a DOI and is linked to the journal's ISSN, allowing reliable citations and consistent indexing across platforms. We encourage authors to include ORCID identifiers, which improve author attribution and search accuracy.
Our publishing workflow produces machine-readable metadata for titles, abstracts, keywords, references, and funding information. This supports search engine optimization and accurate indexing in scholarly databases. Consistent metadata also improves reporting, impact tracking, citation, and metrics.
How JAPST supports discoverability
- DOI assignment through CrossRef for persistent citation tracking.
- Standardized metadata and structured abstracts for search engines.
- OAI-PMH-compatible feeds to support harvesting by repositories.
- Open access licensing that enables sharing and reuse.
Archiving and preservation
JAPST maintains long-term access through digital preservation practices, redundant storage, and structured content formats. Archiving protects the scholarly record and ensures articles remain accessible even as platforms evolve. This benefits authors and readers.
Authors can also deposit final articles in institutional repositories or funder archives in line with open access policies. Our team can provide guidance on repository deposits when needed.
Discovery channels
Published articles are indexed and discovered through academic search engines and institutional repositories. These services help researchers locate JAPST content by topic, method, or citation links. Examples include broad academic search engines, library discovery layers, and repository harvesters that surface open access content. Specific coverage may differ by platform and update cycles.
We continually work to expand visibility across reputable indexing platforms and to keep metadata synchronized for accurate citation reporting.
How authors can improve visibility
- Use clear, descriptive titles and structured abstracts.
- Select keywords that match common search terms in pharmaceutical science.
- Include ORCID identifiers for all authors.
- Link to datasets or code repositories when applicable.
- Share published articles through institutional repositories or professional networks.
Including funding details, standardized keywords, and repository links improves indexing quality. Depositing accepted manuscripts in institutional repositories can extend long-term visibility.
Indexing updates and verification
Indexing coverage can evolve as platforms update their criteria. JAPST monitors discoverability and works to keep metadata consistent across services. If you need indexing confirmation for grants or reports, request a verification letter from the editorial office.
