Review Process

BIOCHEMICA follows a rigorous, transparent, and fair peer-review process to ensure the publication of high-quality, original, and impactful research.

Our Peer-Review System

BIOCHEMICA uses a single-blind peer-review process, where the reviewers remain anonymous, to ensure an unbiased and constructive evaluation of all submitted manuscripts. All articles are reviewed by experts in the relevant field, and editorial decisions are based on the reviewers' comments and the journal's editorial policies.

Step-by-step review process

1. Manuscript Submission

2. Initial Screening

3. Assignment to Handling Editor

5. Editorial Decision

Based on reviewers' reports, the editor decides: Accept, Minor/Major Revision, or Reject.

6. Revision and Final Decision
