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. Copyright , Beech Tree Publishing.
