摘要

Abstract

In recent years

metabolic engineering has made great progress in both academic research and industrial applications. However

we have not found any articles that specifically analyze the current state of metabolic engineering in China in comparison with other countries. Here

we review the current development and future trends of global metabolic engineering

conduct an in-depth benchmarking analysis of the development situation of China’s metabolic engineering

and identify current problems as well as future trends. We searched publications in the Scopus database from 2015 to September 2020 in the field of metabolic engineering

and analyzed the output in general

including publication trends

research distribution

popular journals

hot topics and vital institutions

but also analyzed the share of citations

field-weighted citation impact

and production in collaboration with strategic countries in science and technology. This study aims to serve as a reference for later studies

offering a comprehensive view of China’s contribution to metabolic engineering

and as a tool for the elaboration of national public policy in science and technology.
