Purtroppo non tutte le riviste accettano un pre-submission inquiry... Se il tuo lavoro e' molto tecnico e magari hai messo bene a punto un protocollo potresti candidarti per Nature Methods.
Per quanto riguarda l'IF Web Of Knowledge e' il riferimento http://apps.isiknowledge.com ma, come ha detto chick, e' su abbonamento
Citazione: PLoS ONE does not consider presubmission inquiries. Such inquiries essentially request that the editors of a journal assess whether the paper is of potential interest to that journal by virtue of its subject area, novelty, or anticipated impact. In general, such subjective opinion would have little bearing on whether a paper should be published in PLoS ONE. First of all, all subject areas are of interest to PLoS ONE, and furthermore, to judge whether a study has been sufficiently well performed and well documented to permit publication in PLoS ONE requires submission of the full paper
