Duties of Editors
Fair Play and Editorial Independence
Editors at the International Journal of Advanced Biochemistry Research Noosphere evaluate submitted manuscripts solely on the basis of their academic merit—such as importance, originality, scientific validity, clarity, and relevance to the scope of biochemical research—without regard to the authors’ race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic origin, citizenship, religious belief, political philosophy, or institutional affiliation. Editorial decisions are not influenced by the policies of governments or other institutions outside the journal. The Editor-in-Chief has full authority over the entire editorial content and publication schedule of the journal, ensuring an objective and fair process.

Confidentiality
Editors must not disclose any information about a submitted manuscript to anyone other than the corresponding author, reviewers, potential reviewers, editorial advisers, and the publisher, as appropriate. All editorial staff and reviewers are required to maintain confidentiality and must not use any data or ideas contained in the manuscripts for personal gain.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
Editors and editorial board members will not use unpublished information disclosed in a submitted manuscript for their own research without the author’s explicit written consent. Editors will recuse themselves from handling manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the paper. In such cases, another editor will be assigned to oversee the review process.

Publication Decisions
All manuscripts submitted to the journal undergo a rigorous peer-review process by at least two reviewers who are experts in the relevant field of biochemistry. The Editor-in-Chief is responsible for the final decision regarding acceptance or rejection, based on the reviewers' evaluations, the scientific validity and originality of the manuscript, and compliance with ethical and legal requirements including issues like plagiarism, libel, and copyright infringement.

Involvement and Cooperation in Investigations
In the case of ethical concerns raised about submitted or published content, editors (in coordination with the publisher) will follow established protocols and COPE guidelines to investigate the issue. If misconduct is confirmed, appropriate corrective actions such as corrections, retractions, or expressions of concern will be issued.

Duties of Reviewers
Contribution to Editorial Decisions
Reviewers provide critical feedback that helps editors make informed decisions and authors improve their manuscripts. Peer review is central to maintaining the quality and integrity of scholarly publishing in the field of biochemistry.

Promptness
Any invited reviewer who feels unqualified to evaluate a manuscript or is unable to do so within the specified time should inform the editor promptly and withdraw from the review process.

Confidentiality
Manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. They should not be shared or discussed with others unless authorized by the Editor-in-Chief.

Standards of Objectivity
Reviews should be objective, constructive, and free of personal criticism. Reviewers must clearly express their views with supporting arguments, particularly in relation to the manuscript's contribution to the field of biochemistry.

Acknowledgement of Sources
Reviewers should identify relevant works that have not been cited and bring to the editor’s attention any substantial similarity between the manuscript under review and any other work they are aware of.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
Reviewers must declare any conflicts of interest (personal, financial, academic, or otherwise) and decline to review manuscripts where such conflicts exist. They must not use any information or data obtained during peer review for their personal or professional advantage.

Duties of Authors
Reporting Standards
Authors must present an accurate and objective account of their research. The manuscript should include sufficient detail and references to allow others to replicate the work. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements are unethical and unacceptable.

Data Access and Retention
Authors may be asked to provide the raw data for editorial review and should retain such data for at least 10 years. Data should be made available upon request, while respecting confidentiality and intellectual property rights.

Originality and Plagiarism
Authors must ensure their work is original and appropriately cites any sources. Plagiarism in all forms is unethical and unacceptable.

Multiple, Duplicate, Redundant or Concurrent Submission
Authors should not submit the same manuscript to more than one journal at the same time or submit previously published material unless clearly justified and approved by both journals.

Authorship of the Manuscript
Authorship should be limited to those who have made significant contributions to the conception, design, execution, or interpretation of the research. All co-authors must approve the final version and agree to its submission. Contributors who do not meet authorship criteria should be acknowledged appropriately.

Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest
Authors must disclose any financial or non-financial conflicts of interest that might influence the interpretation of their results. All sources of funding should be clearly stated in the manuscript.

Acknowledgement of Sources
Authors must properly cite all referenced materials, including those obtained through personal communications, which should be used only with permission.

Hazards and Use of Human or Animal Subjects
If the research involves hazardous chemicals, human participants, or animals, authors must ensure compliance with institutional and national regulations and include appropriate statements regarding ethics approvals and informed consent.

Participation in Peer Review
Authors are expected to cooperate fully during the peer review process by responding promptly to editors’ requests and making necessary revisions within the specified timeline.

Fundamental Errors in Published Works
If authors discover significant errors in their published work, they must notify the editors or publisher and cooperate to issue corrections or retractions as necessary.

Duties of the Publisher
Handling of Unethical Publishing Behaviour
The publisher, in collaboration with the editors, is responsible for investigating and resolving any ethical issues, including cases of plagiarism, data fabrication, or other forms of scientific misconduct. When necessary, the publisher will publish corrections, retractions, or statements of concern to maintain the integrity of the scientific record. Under no circumstances will the publisher support or permit unethical behavior.
