ETHICS IN PUBLISHING

Originality

Manuscripts submitted by the author to the Journal must be of original work. Food Research (the Journal) is strongly against plagiarism and self-plagiarism and will ensure that all manuscripts submitted should be free of any plagiarism, falsifications, or omission of significant material. Authors must not submit papers of the same work to multiple journals at the same time. Duplicated submission papers detected by the Journal will render immediate rejection.

Please cite or quote appropriately if work/words of others are being used. Avoid excessive self-citation as it might violate the reviewing process.

Authorship

All authors that are named on the manuscript must have made contribution to the paper, whether in the design and/or analysis and interpretation of the data/or drafting of the paper. All authors must have critically reviewed and approved the contents of the final version of the manuscript submitted for publication.

Conflict of Interest

Avoid any possible conflict of interest, or appearance of conflict of interest during the submission process.

Since the Journal practices peer-reviewing, authors are to be reminded not to nominate reviewers that are of the same institution and the authors of the manuscript. Authors should not nominate any individuals whom they know have already read and provided comments on the manuscript or a previous version of the manuscript since such knowledge would automatically violate the reviewing process. Suggested peer-reviewers will be considered in the reviewing process by the Journal. If there is no response from the suggested peer-reviewers, the Journal has the rights to nominate reviewers of the Journal.
