9.26 Under review, sent to three reviewers
10.14 Received comments from the first reviewer
10.29 Received comments from the second reviewer, editor made a decision without waiting for the third reviewer, major revisions required. Overall, the comments were positive, no additional experiments required.
11.06 Submitted revised manuscript, addressed reviewers' questions and supplemented the content of the article
11.09 Sent for a second review, same reviewers as before
11.17 Received comments from the first reviewer
11.22 Received comments from the second reviewer
11.24 Editor's decision, major revisions required, one reviewer accepted the revisions, the other reviewer found the answers to two questions unsatisfactory and felt the decision for major revisions was arbitrary.
11.25 Addressed the two questions, resubmitted the revised manuscript
11.27 Accepted directly
Overall, it is difficult to obtain minor revisions now, most revisions are major, even though the revisions may not be very complex. The journal values innovation, and this article is innovative enough, which the editor seems to be interested in, so everything is going smoothly. However, this journal tends to have slower manuscript processing times, typically taking 3-4 months, so there is no need to rush the editor. Moreover, this journal does not provide any contact information for the editor, not even an email for customer service, so it is not recommended to request updates on the status of the manuscript.
