JCMMF · BIOSUSS Publishing
Journal Policies
An open scholarly forum for chemical sciences, molecular studies, materials research, analytical methods and sustainable chemical processes.
Publication ethics
The journal expects adherence to responsible scholarship, accurate attribution, transparent methods, and disclosures of funding, conflicts of interest and research ethics. Suspected plagiarism, fabrication, duplicate publication and undisclosed manipulation require editorial investigation.
Peer review and editorial decisions
Independent expert review is the normal route. Editorial decisions must be recorded, justified and free from conflicts of interest. Documented Editor-in-Chief assessments may apply in reviewer non-response cases; they must not be represented as independent external reports.
Open access and copyright
Open-access distribution is intended, but exact licensing and author charges will be specified on the final author agreement before publication. No automatic licence is implied by this draft policy.
AI tools
Authors must disclose substantive AI assistance and remain responsible for factual accuracy, originality, confidentiality and citations. AI systems must not be named as authors.
Corrections and retractions
The journal will maintain a documented path for corrections, expressions of concern and retractions, with notices linked to the publication of record when applicable.
Data and reproducibility
Authors should explain how underlying data and methods can be assessed, subject to ethical, legal and privacy restrictions.
Indexing and archiving
Indexing services, identifiers and long-term archiving arrangements will only be listed after verification. No Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science, DOAJ, CORE or other index coverage is claimed.
Publication fees
Any author charges or waiver rules must be formally published before submissions open; no unannounced fee is payable through this website.
