Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Collagen microspheres usually have particle size lesser than 200 μm, which are characteristically free-flowing powders of protein. They can overcome some of the conventional therapy problems and enhance therapeutic efficacy due to their biocompatible and biodegradable nature. Collagen microspheres were prepared using the fish Lates calcarifer scale collagen and were loaded with Bixa orellana plant extract. The Bixa orellana plant extract-loaded collagen microsphere was characterized for its physico-chemical properties using Fourier-transform infrared, Raman spectra, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and particle size analysis, and in vitro plant extract release. This plant extract showed good antimicrobial property against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The in vitro anticancer activity of the prepared material was carried out using MCF-7 cell lines which showed 83.46 % of cell death at 1000 μg/well. Anticancer effect of the prepared material can be enhanced by increasing the concentration of plant extract in the composite. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
