Aims and Scope

Critical Reviews in Microbiology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that publishes comprehensive reviews covering all areas of microbiology relevant to humans and animals, including medical and veterinary microbiology, public health and environmental microbiology. These may include subjects related to microbial molecular biology, immunopathogenicity, physiology, biochemistry, structure, and epidemiology. Of particular interest are reviews covering clinical aspects of bacterial, virological, fungal and parasitic diseases. All reviews must be analytical, comprehensive, and balanced in nature. Editors welcome uninvited submissions, as well as suggested topics for reviews accompanied by an abstract.

Verified Reviews

Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.

Submitted on January 17th in recent years, it took one week to be "With Editor" and another week to be "Out for Review". This status lasted for more than 5 months. During this period, a reminder was sent after 3 months, and it was mentioned that only one reviewer's feedback had been received, while waiting for the other reviewer's feedback. After the external review was completed, the results were received within 3 days, and both reviewers suggested minor revisions. Overall, the email responses were timely, and the editor's attitude was good, but the process took too long.

After 3 months of submission, a reply was received requesting major revisions; what's ridiculous is that the reviewer rejected it, claiming not to have seen the response letter. What a waste of 4 whole months, quite frustrating.
