https://journal.hibiscuspublisher.com/index.php/JEBAT <p>Journal of Environmental Bioremediation and Toxicology (e-ISSN 2289-5884) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing scientific understanding and technological innovation in the fields of environmental bioremediation, toxicology, and bio-based sustainability.<br />The journal publishes original research articles, short communications, mini-reviews, and comprehensive review papers that cover the fundamental and applied aspects of biochemistry, microbiology, and biotechnology relevant to environmental and biological systems.<br />The journal’s areas of interest include, but are not limited to:<br />• Environmental Bioremediation &amp; Pollution Control: Process involving microbial and biochemical processes for the remediation of soil, water, and air contaminants; biodegradation; phytoremediation; and sustainable waste management technologies.<br />• Toxicology &amp; Risk Assessment: Mechanistic and ecological toxicology, biomonitoring, toxicity testing, and environmental health impacts of pollutants and emerging contaminants.<br />• Biotechnology &amp; Bioengineering: Development and application of biotechnological tools in industrial, agricultural, medical, and environmental contexts; biosensors and bioprocess technologies.<br />• Molecular &amp; Systems Biology: Genetic and molecular approaches for understanding bioremediation mechanisms, bioinformatics applications, and synthetic biology innovations.<br />• Bioresources &amp; Bioeconomy: Valorization of biological resources, bioproduct development, food and feed biotechnology, and sustainable bio-based production systems.<br />• Cross-disciplinary Research: Integration of environmental science with engineering, data science, and policy for sustainable solutions, including ethical biotechnology.<br />The journal provides an international platform for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to contribute to global discussions on sustainable biotechnological innovations and environmental resilience, aimed at bridging the gap between basic science and practical applications, promoting cross-disciplinary dialogue and technological translation, especially those that support the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). <br />Authors wishing to submit their manuscript to this journal please submit their manuscript to the Editor-in-Chief <strong>aaisami@gsu.edu.ng.</strong></p> <p> </p> Hibiscus Publisher en-US Journal of Environmental Bioremediation and Toxicology 2289-5884 <p>Authors who publish with this journal agree to the following terms:<br><br></p> <ol type="a"> <li>Authors retain copyright and grant the journal right of first publication with the work simultaneously licensed under a&nbsp;<a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_new">Creative Commons Attribution License</a>&nbsp;(http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0) that allows others to share the work with an acknowledgement of the work's authorship and initial publication in this journal.</li> <li>Authors are able to enter into separate, additional contractual arrangements for the non-exclusive distribution of the journal's published version of the work (e.g., post it to an institutional repository or publish it in a book), with an acknowledgement of its initial publication in this journal.</li> <li>Authors are permitted and encouraged to post their work online (e.g., in institutional repositories or on their website) prior to and during the submission process, as it can lead to productive exchanges, as well as earlier and greater citation of published work (See&nbsp;<a href="http://opcit.eprints.org/oacitation-biblio.html" target="_new">The Effect of Open Access</a>).</li> </ol> https://journal.hibiscuspublisher.com/index.php/JEBAT/article/view/1160 <table> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p>In this issue, we are very excited to announce that the Journal of Environmental Bioremediation and Toxicology (JEBAT) is entering a new chapter. We have changed our focus to better reflect the changing fields of environmental science and biotechnology in this sustainable era. Since it started in 2013, JEBAT has been a place for serious research in environmental biochemistry, bioremediation, and toxicology. As the focus of the scientific community around the world deals with more and more complex ecological and technological issues, our mission is refocused to keep up with a world that is changing quickly. The new scope intends to make JEBAT an international, peer-reviewed, open-access platform that is not only dedicated to the advancement of only bioremediation and toxicology but also takes into account the sustainability aspect. This is a very important area where science, innovation, and global responsibility meet. We have now focused on more important areas, which include environmental biotechnology, molecular and systems biology, toxicology and risk assessment, and the bioeconomy.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>This encompassing approach shows how dedicated we are to promoting crosses disciplines research that is tailored to UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). JEBAT aim is to close the gap between basic science and practical solutions through the encouragement of submissions that combine biotechnology, engineering, and data-driven approaches to making the environment more resilient. We have also included SDG goals input in the front page to strengthen sustainability aspects. We ask researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to share their ideas and new ways of doing things as we work together to build a sustainable future based on science, ethics, and cooperation. We thus, invite researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to contribute manuscripts covering innovative ideas and approaches to JEBAT in our mission toward a sustainable future that is grounded in science, ethics, and collaboration.</p> Abubakar Aisami Copyright (c) 2025 Abubakar Aisami 2025-12-31 2025-12-31 8 2 1 1 10.54987/jebat.v8i2.1160
