About the Journal
Annals of Research in Antioxidants
ISSN : 2476-5511
Aims and Scope
The aim and scope of the journal "Annals of Research in Antioxidants" are as follows:
Aim
The journal aims to provide an advanced forum for studies related to the science and technology of antioxidants. It encourages scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible, with no restriction on the maximum length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation or experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary electronic material.
Scope
The scope of the journal includes but is not limited to:
- Biosynthesis, Isolation, and Biological Activity of Redox Active Natural Products: Studies on the isolation and biological activity of natural products with redox properties.
- Natural and Synthetic Antioxidants and Their Relevance to Plant, Animal, and Human Health and Disease: Research on the role of antioxidants in maintaining health and preventing diseases.
- Reactive Species, Including ROS, RNS, and RSS: Investigations into reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and reactive sulfur species (RSS).
- Antioxidant Metabolism in Biological Systems from Plants and Microbes to Animals: Studies on the metabolic pathways of antioxidants in various biological systems.
- Elucidation of Antioxidant Mechanisms: Research on the mechanisms by which antioxidants function.
- Evaluation of Antioxidant Capacity in Vitro and in Vivo: Assessments of antioxidant capacity in laboratory and real-world settings.
- Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics of Natural Antioxidants: Investigations into the effects and absorption of natural antioxidants.
- Redox Modulation in Biological Systems by Pro- and Antioxidants: Research on the effects of pro- and antioxidants on biological systems.
- Biological Redox Catalysis and Catalysts: Studies on the catalytic processes involving antioxidants.
- Innovative Techniques of Antioxidant Delivery and Protocols for the Extraction, Isolation, and Structural Characterization of New Natural Antioxidants: Development of new methods for delivering and extracting antioxidants.
- Dietary Antioxidants, Food Supplements, and Sub products: Research on the role of antioxidants in food and dietary supplements.
- Safe Antioxidant Preservatives for Foods, Fodder, and Cosmetic Formulations: Development of safe antioxidant preservatives for various products.

Plagiarism
Annals of Research in Antioxidants is committed on publishing only original materials (materials that neither have been published elsewhere nor are under review elsewhere). The Annals of Research in Antioxidants is powered by the iThenticate® software, a plagiarism detector software that detects the originality of content submitted before publication. If plagiarism is recognized, we act based on flowcharts and workflows regulated by the COPE.
Plagiarism could be the following items
- Direct copying the text from other articles
- Copying concepts, photos, or data from other published sources
- Copying the text from the own previously published materials
Plagiarism Policies
If plagiarism is recognized, the manuscript will be rejected. Additionally, if plagiarism is detected after the publication of the paper, they will retract according to the COPE guidelines.
Duplicate Submission
Papers, which have been published elsewhere, or to be under review elsewhere, will incur duplicate submission/publication sanctions. If authors have used their own previously published study, or study that is currently under review, as the basis for a submitted manuscript, they are required to cite the previous paper and indicate how their submitted manuscript offers novel contributions beyond those of the previous work.
Citation Manipulation
Submitted papers that are found to include citations whose primary purpose is to increase the number of citations to a given author’s article, or to articles published in a particular journal, will incur citation manipulation sanctions.
Data Fabrication and Falsification
Submitted papers that are found to have either fabricated or falsified experimental results, including the manipulation of images, will incur data fabrication and falsification sanctions.
Improper Author Contribution or Attribution
All listed authors must have made a significant scientific contribution to the study in the paper and approved all its claims. It is important to list everyone who made a significant scientific contribution, including students and laboratory technicians.
Redundant Publications
Redundant publications involve the inappropriate division of study outcomes into several articles.
Process for Identification of and Dealing with Allegations of Research Misconduct
Society of Diabetic Nephropathy Prevention (http://sdiabeticnephropathy.com) as the publisher and the Editor-in-Chief of the Annals of Research in Antioxidants will take practical steps, which comprise technological and personal knowledge available to identify and block the publication of papers where research misconduct has arisen, containing citation manipulation, plagiarism, and data falsification/fabrication among others.
