Publication Ethics

International Journal of Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology Research (IJAMBR) holds the ethics of publication as one of its core values and as such, adheres strictly to internationally accepted publication ethics. To ensure compliance, IJAMBR employs the double-blinded peer-review process for all articles she reviews. The rationale for IJAMBR double-blinded peer review process is to validate the integrity and novelty of the research work. Peer review process adopted by IJAMBR acts as filter and increases the quality of research submitted for publication. This process also help the authors to remove any errors or gaps in manuscript mistakenly overlooked and assists in making the research more applicable in real time.

International Journal of Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology Research adopts the COPE guidelines on publication ethics.

  • Only unpublished manuscripts should be submitted;
  • It is unethical to submit a manuscript to more than one journal concurrently;
