International Journal of Biology and Chemistry (IJBC) Online ISSN: 2409-370X; Print ISSN: 2218-7979 The most significant achievements of the modern science are joined by different sciences among them are chemistry and biology. Therefore publication of Journal, which is showing results of current investigations in the field of chemistry and biology, will allow widely exhibiting scientific problems, tasks and discoveries. One of the basic goal of the Journal will be to promote the extensive exchange information between the scientists of all over the world. We suggest publishing original papers and materials of Chemical and Biological Conferences (after selection) holding in different countries. The creation of special International Journal of Biology and Chemistry is of great importance because a great amount of scientists to publish their articles and it will help to wide the geography of future operations. We will be glad to publish also the papers of scientists from other continents. The Journal will exist for the publication of experimental and theoretical investigations of chemistry, chemical technology and biology, biotechnology. Among the subject emphasized are: modern problems of organic synthesis technologies; scientific basis of the production of physiologically active preparations; modern problems of the processing technologies of raw materials, production of new materials and technologies; investigation of chemical and physical properties and structure of oil and coal; theoretical and practical problems of hydrocarbons processing; the modern achievement in the field of nanotechnology; results of investigations in biology, biotechnology, etc. The journal is issued on the base of al-Farabi Kazakh National University. Leading scientists from different countries of the world agreed to be the members of an editorial board of the journal. We shall hope to receive papers from the many laboratories which are interested in the application of the scientific principles of chemistry, chemical technology, biology and are carrying out research on the subject, whether it be in relation to production new materials, technology or ecology problems. All submissions will be reviewed by independent Reviewers. Authors are encouraged to submit names and email addresses of expert reviewers, but selection remains a prerogative of the Editors.
