Toxics Receives Its Increased CiteScore of 4.5

We are pleased to inform you that Toxics (ISSN: 2305-6304) has increased its CiteScore of 4.5 for June 2024, following its inclusion in Scopus (Elsevier) in 2017.

Now Toxics’ CiteScore ranks as follows:

• Q2 (8 out of 16) in the “Chemical Health and Safety” category;
• Q3 (78 out of 148) in the “Health, Toxicology and Mutagenesis” category;
• Q3 (75 out of 133) in the “Toxicology” category.

CiteScore provides transparent metrics that enable well-informed publishing strategies, library collection development, and the benchmarking of journal performance. It is now a standard citation metric alongside SNIP and SJR that gives an up-to-date view of a journal’s impact.

The CiteScore metrics for 2024 are calculated by dividing the total number of citations of peer-reviewed articles in a journal from 2020 to 2023 by the total number of peer-reviewed articles published in the journal over the same period.

This noteworthy achievement is a cause for congratulations to everyone involved!
