Introduction

Biotechnology integrates biological knowledge with scientific and technological methods to investigate biological processes and develop practical applications. Contemporary biotechnology spans molecular biology, microbiology, genetics, bioprocessing, bioinformatics, environmental applications, agriculture, healthcare, and related areas. Within this broad research environment, bibliometric indicators can provide measurable information about publication output and citation activity, although such indicators do not independently describe the quality, significance, or societal value of individual research contributions. [1] [2]

Research Profile

Sanjeet Mehariya’s research profile is presented within the Biotechnology subject area and is institutionally associated with the Central University of Rajasthan. The supplied bibliometric figures comprise 90 documents, 5,533 citations, and an h-index of 41. The h-index is a bibliometric measure that combines publication output and citation counts, while citation totals provide an indication of how frequently the indexed publications have been cited within the relevant scholarly database. [1]

Research Contributions

The available information establishes a research profile in Biotechnology but does not provide a verified subject-by-subject inventory of specific experimental contributions. Accordingly, individual scientific contributions are not attributed here without corresponding publication-level evidence. The documented publication and citation record can nevertheless be used to describe the scale of the indexed scholarly output associated with the researcher. [1]

Publications

The supplied Scopus record reports 90 documents associated with Scopus Author ID 56035147600. The available input does not provide a verified publication-by-publication bibliography or individual DOI identifiers. Therefore, specific publication titles, authorship details, publication years, journal information, and DOI records are not reproduced here to avoid introducing unverified bibliographic information. The complete indexed publication record can be consulted through the researcher’s Scopus author profile. [1]

Research Impact

The supplied bibliometric record indicates 5,533 citations and an h-index of 41 across 90 documents. These metrics provide quantitative information about citation activity and publication impact within the indexed Scopus database. Citation-based indicators can vary according to database coverage, disciplinary citation practices, publication age, and author disambiguation; consequently, they are most appropriately interpreted as bibliometric measures rather than comprehensive assessments of research quality or broader societal impact. [1]

Award Suitability

The Scientist Global Awards identifies the award context associated with this profile. The supplied academic record documents a Biotechnology research affiliation, 90 Scopus-indexed documents, 5,533 citations, and an h-index of 41. These documented indicators may form part of an academic recognition profile, while a complete award assessment may also consider the underlying publications, originality, research contributions, institutional context, and other criteria established by the relevant award process. The award information presented on this page should be read together with the official award website for current eligibility, nomination, evaluation, and recognition information. [3]

Conclusion

Sanjeet Mehariya is presented as a Biotechnology researcher affiliated with the Central University of Rajasthan in India. The supplied Scopus record reports 90 documents, 5,533 citations, and an h-index of 41, while ORCID provides a persistent identifier for the researcher’s scholarly identity. [1] [2]
