GUIDE FOR AUTHORS

MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION

Public trust in the scientific process and the credibility of published articles depend in part on how transparently conflicts of interest are handled during the planning, implementation, writing, peer review, editing, and publication of scientific work.

Each author or group of authors must fill out the attached document from the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors stating the ethical aspects of their research and that they did not have to pay any fee for the editing and publication of their article in Bionatura. To download the ICMJE form, please click here or in Word Document

Figures should be sent as separate high-resolution JPG files. Figures inserted in the text are not of sufficient quality for publication.
Tables should be sent in the same file as the article or in separate Word files, but they must be editable, not images.

The full name and surname, email and ORCID number of each author are required.

The summary should be written without subheadings. All followed in a single paragraph

All references in Vancouver, in increasing and continuous numerical order, with superscript numbers and without parentheses.

For better publicity of your work, obtain an ORCID identifier and send it along with your publication

Submission

To submit your manuscript, access our submission. For evaluation, we prefer the manuscript in a single PDF with all the content, but you can send it in any format you wish. There is no need to format the manuscript or the references. Upon acceptance of the article, we will need the text and tables in Word format, along with the images or other materials in their highest resolution, to facilitate the preparation of the proofs.
