Hello, 
Dear teacher researchers, 
you are invited to send your publication to be evaluated by the editorial board of Int Biotechnol. Colorhttp://www.ibcj.org.mx/ J. ISSN 2226-0404. You can send your article about some area of impact of biotechnology such as bioethics, bio-business, education, intellectual property, bioterrorism, bioinformatics and nanobiotechnology, agricultural, sea, health, food, synthetic biology, and others.

Missing only two copies to reach three years of publication with which it could be applied to indexed in CONACYT. It is currently in the process of indexing in EBSCO. Already indexed in Latindex.

Adheres to the highest standards of ethics, so the journal is not on the list of Professor Beal "PREDATORY JOURNALS". Currently publishing in the journal does not incur any cash charge, or for review or for publication.

Best Regards
Editors
