American Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology publishes all aspects of applied microbiology and biotechnology in research papers, short communications, technical communications and review articles. It provides a forum for research work directed towards microbiological and biotechnological solutions to global problems encouraging contributions from scientists from all across the globe who have an interest in tackling them. As many global issues, for example improving crop productivity, public health and waste management, have more acute consequences in the developing world, the Journal emphasizes the role of biotechnological advances, for and from developing regions.sciences.
