Abstract: Purpose and methods: Using the method of literature metrology to analyse the articles and references in 28 issues of CARCINOGENESIS, TERATUGENESIS AND MUTAGENESIS published during 1995 to 2001. Results: Papers concerning mutagenesis and carcinogenesis decreased in some extent, and those concerning anti-carcinogenesis and anti-teratogenesis slightly increased,and those concerning mutagenesis were still the most in number. The number of the authers per article was averagely 3.84, and most authers were in research institutes and universities; the reginal destribution was extensive for the authers, and prolific authers were still quite few. The average number of references cited per article was 8.01, and most of the references was taken from Chinese or English periodicals. The average half-lifewas averagely 5.62 years for the Chinese literaure, and 1.83 years for the English literatures. Conclusion: Since 1995, the quality of the journal has been improved continuously.
