該國際期刊在昆蟲生物化學和昆蟲分子生物學領域發(fā)表了原創(chuàng)文章和小評論。主要研究領域包括神經化學、激素和信息素生物化學、酶和代謝、激素作用和基因調控、基因特性和結構、藥理學、免疫學以及細胞和組織培養(yǎng)。若讀者對其他節(jié)肢動物的生物化學和分子生物學有一般興趣，可發(fā)表有關這些動物的論文。如果技術論文在編輯和編輯委員會的意見中對昆蟲生物化學和分子生物學領域有重大進展，將考慮發(fā)表。

This international journal publishes original contributions and mini-reviews in the fields of insect biochemistry and insect molecular biology. Main areas of interest are neurochemistry, hormone and pheromone biochemistry, enzymes and metabolism, hormone action and gene regulation, gene characterization and structure, pharmacology, immunology and cell and tissue culture. Papers on the biochemistry and molecular biology of other groups of arthropods are published if of general interest to the readership. Technique papers will be considered for publication if they significantly advance the field of insect biochemistry and molecular biology in the opinion of the Editors and Editorial Board.
