Abstract: (505 Views) |
The invention and advancement of genome editing methods have revolutionized the field of biosciences. The growth and development of this technology have led to significant advancements in medical, agricultural, and industrial biotechnology. This article focuses on the bibliometric analysis of the CRISPR/Cas9 technology as an effective tool in genome editing in the growth and development of biosciences. The data for this research was obtained from the Scopus scientific database from 2013 to 2023. The results showed that the number of scientific publications in this field has been approved at a high acceptance rate by scientific journals. Furthermore, the results indicated that the United States and China are in tight competition in terms of publishing scientific articles in this field. The assessment of Iran's position in genome editing compared to other Middle Eastern countries was another comparison made in this study, showing evidence of Iran's high scientific ranking in using CRISPR technology in medical and industrial sciences. However, there has not been significant growth in the use of this technology in plant sciences and agriculture.
