description In this study our aim was to perform citation analysis of journals published in infectious diseases and clinical microbiology field in Turkey. Selected journals were Turkish Journal of Infection, KL‹M‹K Journal, ANKEM Journal, Viral Hepatitis Journal, Turkish Journal of Hospital Infections, Turkish Microbiology Association Journal, Microbiology Bulletin and Flora Journal. Citation data was retrieved by searching Science Citation Index Expanded. When we analysed overall citation data between January 1994 and May 2004, the most cited three journals were Microbiology Bulletin (191), Turkish Journal of Infection (121) and Turkish Microbiology Association Journal (44). In 2003, journals with an impact factor greater than 0 were Turkish Journal of Infection (0.011), ANKEM Journal (0.008) and Viral Hepatitis Journal (0.007). None of the journals had an immediacy index greater than 0 in 2003. As a result, total number of citations, impact factors and immediacy index of analysed journals were not high but the progress in recent years gives hope for the future.
