Abstract:
A bibliometric analysis of institutional research productivity in nine Sri
Lankan research laboratories in the field of natural products chemistry
showed a conspicuous rise and fall during 1975 to 1998. One institution was
the dominant contributor to this. Scientific impact resulting from intra-
departmental collaboration was as strong as that from international
collaboration. Changes in the working conditions as well as growing,
disparities in research environments resulted in a productivity
transposition within a set cultural landscape.
