Abstract

Based on the Essential Science Indicators database, this study analyzed 2,886 top papers in the subject category of Food Science and Technology from January 2011 to June 2021. The 2,886 top papers include 2,882 highly cited papers and 56 hot papers. All papers written in English, were from 10,698 authors, 2,666 organizations and 115 countries/territories, published in 106 journals and two book series in the field. The top five Journals are Food Chemistry, Food Hydrocolloids, Trends in Food Science Technology, Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition and Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. The top six countries and regions were Peoples R China, USA, Spain, Italy, Brazil and India. The top six organizations of Jiangnan University, University of Massachusetts, South China University of Technology, Zhejiang University, Jiangsu University and University of Valencia were popular based on contribution of articles more than 45 papers each. The top five authors were Mcclements David Julian, Sun Da-Wen, Barba Francisco J., Lorenzo Jose M. and Zhang Min. All keywords were separated seven clusters for different research topic. Visualizations offer exploratory information on the current state in a scientific field or discipline as well as indicate possible developments in the future.

  • According to category description for Food Science and Technology in Scope Notes of Science Citation Index Expanded, it covers those resources concerning various aspects of food research and production, including food additives and contaminants, food chemistry and biochemistry, meat science, food microbiology and technology, dairy science, food engineering and processing, cereal science, brewing, and food quality and safety. (Clarivate, 2021b).Bibliometric analysis is a method assessing the status and trends of a particular research field and providing ideas and directions for future research

  • A bibliometric evaluation of highly cited papers with high-level representation was conducted during the period from 1999 to 2009 based on the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) database (Fu et al, 2011), highly cited papers in the field of Economics and Business based on the Essential Science Indicators database (Zhang et al, 2018), highly cited papers in operations research and management science from 2008 to 2017 (Liao et al, 2019), highly cited papers in environmental sciences (Ma et al, 2020), macro-level collaboration network analysis and visualization with Essential Science Indicators: Received 19 Sept., 2021 Accepted 02 Oct., 2021 1 College of Plant Science and Technology, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan, Hubei, China 2 Library of Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan, Hubei, China

  • The publication counts from the WoS Core Collection were derived from the following databases: The Science Citation Index—Expanded (SCIE)-- 1900-present, Social Science Citation Index (SSCI)--1900-present, Conference Proceeding Citation Index-Science (CPCI-S)--2015-present, Conference Proceedings Citation Index-Social Science & Humanities (CPCI-SSH) --2015-present, Current Chemical Reactions (CCR-EXPANDED) --1985-present, Index Chemicus (IC) --1993-present

Summary

Introduction

According to category description for Food Science and Technology in Scope Notes of Science Citation Index Expanded, it covers those resources concerning various aspects of food research and production, including food additives and contaminants, food chemistry and biochemistry, meat science, food microbiology and technology, dairy science, food engineering and processing, cereal science, brewing, and food quality and safety. (Clarivate, 2021b).Bibliometric analysis is a method assessing the status and trends of a particular research field and providing ideas and directions for future research. Top papers are the sum of hot papers and highly cited papers, based on Clarivate Analytics’ Essential Science Indicators (ESI). Cited paper is a paper that belongs to the top 1% of papers in a research field published in a specified year. A bibliometric evaluation of highly cited papers with high-level representation was conducted during the period from 1999 to 2009 based on the Essential Science Indicators (ESI) database (Fu et al, 2011), highly cited papers in the field of Economics and Business based on the Essential Science Indicators database (Zhang et al, 2018), highly cited papers in operations research and management science from 2008 to 2017 (Liao et al, 2019), highly cited papers in environmental sciences (Ma et al, 2020), macro-level collaboration network analysis and visualization with Essential Science Indicators: Received 19 Sept., 2021 Accepted 02 Oct., 2021 1 College of Plant Science and Technology, Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan, Hubei, China 2 Library of Huazhong Agricultural University, Wuhan, Hubei, China
