Abstract
Using the records of the National Database of Scientific Products and the Scienti-Colombia informational platform, a quantitative analysis of the impact of the scientific production by Colombian research groups was done. Of the bibliographic production since 1996 to 2005, recorded from the 1825 recognized Colombian groups, it was possible to identify 30123 scientific articles published. The 19.33% (5825) of scientific papers were published in scientific journals with Impact Factor (IF) as defined by ISI. The 47.7% were in life sciences and health, and 37.4% in biological and physical sciences.
