Review Policy
Transactions in Physical and Biochemical Sciences (TPBS) follows the following procedure for peer review:
All the submissions are initially screened for suitability of publishing in TPBS.
Selected articles are sent to one local professional and one foreign professional for reviewing the articles.
Comments and suggestions by local and foreign reviewers are sent to author(s) for revising the manuscripts accordingly within specified time period.
Articles are rejected on the basis of reviewers’ comments, lacking originality, lacking interest of readers, scientific flaws and beyond the scope of TPBS.
Reviewing process may take longer time as it depends on reviewers’ reports.
Selection of Reviewers
TPBS selects those reviewers who are qualified, experienced, expert and well known in their field. TPBS discourages reviewers who are biased, non-serious and do not provide potential, constructive and specific feedback on articles sent to them. TPBS acquires a formal consent from reviewers before sending them articles.
