Journal IndexingInternational Journal of Cell
Indexing is the bridge between strong cell biology and global readership. IJC focuses on discoverability, transparent metadata, and trusted scholarly signals so that your research is visible to researchers, libraries, and funders worldwide.
Credibility and Integrity Signals
IJC uses recognized scholarly infrastructure to support the integrity of the published record. CrossMark provides version control so readers access the most current article version, while Similarity Check supports editorial screening for originality.
These signals help researchers trust the work they cite and confirm that updates, corrections, or retractions are communicated clearly. For authors, this means long term confidence in how your article is presented and discovered.
We publish clear metadata and structured article information to support discovery and citation accuracy across academic search engines and library systems.

Global Discovery Channels
Google Scholar
Fast indexing in the world's most used academic search engine to reach researchers across every discipline.
WorldCat (OCLC)
Library catalog visibility that helps institutions surface IJC articles for faculty and student use.
Semantic Scholar
AI-supported discovery for researchers looking for cellular evidence and related works.
OpenAlex
Open metadata indexing that supports analytics, discovery tools, and research reporting.
CORE
Aggregation of open access content used by institutions and discovery platforms.
BASE
Academic search engine that harvests metadata from trusted open access sources.
These services discover articles through metadata, structured sitemaps, and open access availability. Inclusion supports reach and visibility, but does not imply editorial endorsement by any external service.
How Discovery Happens
From submission to publication, indexing milestones are tracked to ensure your article becomes visible quickly and reliably.
Editorial checks and peer review confirm scope alignment and scientific integrity.
Final files are prepared in HTML, PDF, and XML with validated metadata.
Sitemaps and structured records support discovery by search engines and libraries.
Articles become discoverable across academic indexes and research profiles.
Common Indexing Questions
What is the difference between indexing and discovery? Indexing supports citation integrity and long term records, while discovery channels focus on helping readers find your work. Both are essential for research impact.
How quickly will my article be discoverable? Discovery timelines vary by service, but many platforms begin indexing within days of publication when metadata is available.
Are articles indexed in PubMed? PubMed visibility depends on eligibility and funder requirements. Articles funded by agencies that require deposit in PubMed Central may become discoverable in PubMed once deposited.
If you have questions about a specific service, contact the editorial office and we will provide clear guidance.
