Progress in Chemical and Biochemical Research

Acknowledgments of PCBR reviewer/January 2020

REVIEWERS PAGE

Reviewing a manuscript written by a fellow scientist is a privilege. However, it is a time-consuming responsibility. Hence, PCBR’s Editorial Board, authors, and audiences appreciate your willingness to accept this responsibility and your dedication. PCBR adheres to a double-blind peer-review process that is rapid, fair, and ensures a high quality of articles published. In so doing, PCBR needs reviewers who can provide insightful and helpful comments on submitted manuscripts with a turn around time of about 4 weeks. Maintaining PCBR as a scientific journal of high quality depends on reviewers with a high level of expertise and an ability to be objective, fair, and insightful in their evaluation of manuscripts.

REVIEWERS’ RESPONSIBILITIES

(http://publicationethics.org/files/u7140/Peer%20review%20guidelines.pdf)

If PCBR’s Editor-in-Chief has invited you to review a manuscript, please consider the following:

Reviewing manuscript critically but constructively and preparing detailed comments about the manuscript to help authors improve their work
Reviewing multiple versions of a manuscript as necessary
Providing all required information within established deadlines
Making recommendations to the editor regarding the suitability of the manuscript for publication in the journal
Declaring to the editor any potential conflicts of interest with respect to the authors or the content of a manuscript they are asked to review
Reporting possible research misconducts
Suggesting alternative reviewers in case they cannot review the manuscript for any reasons
Treating the manuscript as a confidential document
Not making any use of the work described in the manuscript
Not communicating directly with authors, if somehow they identify the authors
Not identifying themselves to authors
Not passing on the assigned manuscript to another reviewer
Ensuring that the manuscript is of high quality and original work
Informing the editor if he/she finds the assigned manuscript is under consideration in any other publication to his/her knowledge
Writing review report in English only
Authoring a commentary for publication related to the reviewed manuscript

WHAT SHOULD BE CHECKED WHILE REVIEWING A MANUSCRIPT?

Novelty
Originality
Scientific reliability
Valuable contribution to the science
Adding new aspects to the existed field of study
Ethical aspects
Structure of the article submitted and its relevance to authors’ guidelines
References provided to substantiate the content
Grammar, punctuation and spelling
Scientific misconduct

Peer reviewers are key to advancing scholarship and contributing to the quality of scholarly journals. We would like to thank the following reviewers who have taken part in the peer-review process for Progress In Chemical and Biochemical Research (PCBR).

Manuscripts not adhering to journal guidelines will be returned to authors without scientific evaluation. Submitted manuscripts adhering to journal guidelines are reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief or an Editor, who will assign them to reviewers. The Editorial Board prepares a decision letter according to the comments of the reviewers, which is sent to the corresponding author. All non-reviewed manuscripts are sent back within 10 days and decisions letters of manuscripts are sent within 4-6 weeks.
