Peer Review Process

Peer review is the process of getting feedback on individual submissions from reviewers who are experts in the subject but are not employed by the publication's editorial team. Peer review is in place to make sure that journals only publish high-quality research that benefits the whole scientific community. The journal strives to offer authors of original research articles the best possible service, as well as the most equitable peer review method, with subject matter experts and a committed Editorial Board of eminent professors and famous scientists from across the world.

Peer reviewers may highlight inconsistencies in your work that call for additional research or clarification. Reviewers will provide you with ideas if your work is difficult to understand so that you can address them. Peer reviewers might offer comments to enhance or more clearly communicate to readers the significance of your work to other professionals in your field.

Peer review serves the vital function of ensuring that the submissions that are subsequently published in the journal are of good quality, in addition to providing authors with guidance.

Types of peer review
Though the journal uses a variety of methods, peer review is always based on subject matter experts offering feedback on a work to help it get better. The most prevalent kinds include:

Single blind – where the reviewers are aware of the authors' identities, but the authors are unaware of the identity of the reviewers of their manuscript.

Double blind – In this instance, the identity of the reviewers and authors are unknown to one another.

Open – where the reviewers expose their identities to the authors and the reviewers are aware of the authors' identities. The reports from the reviewers are sometimes released by journals in addition to the final submission that is published.

Usually, SvedbergOpen uses a double-blind peer review procedure.

Key peer-review process includes the following:

The review procedure is divided into two phases. Internal review is the initial step. Our screening team will review the paper for appropriateness, plagiarism, and initial technical issues in the first step. If plagiarism is discovered, the author will be contacted and asked to make the necessary changes to the article.

The external refereeing process is the second review step. For double blind refereeing, the paper will be transmitted to outside referees under this arrangement. There are three ways the referee can respond to feedback: accept, reject, or require revision. The paper would automatically be published if the referee accepted it. The author of the work must make any necessary alterations and resubmit it to us if the referee makes any changes or revision suggestions. We will send the paper back to the author with comments if the referee rejects it. You can read more about the peer review process here.
