Hello, I submitted my work on August 3rd, and it passed the technical checks on August 4th. Now it shows "in peer review", and it says: "We will now find the most suitable editor to manage the next steps of your submission." I would like to ask if there will be any changes in the status during the review process, or will I be notified by email?

Hello, may I ask if this magazine differentiates between large and small repairs? How long is the usual deadline for modifications?

zhhhui 2023-08-03

It has been 20 days and there has been no movement, it is really slow.

zhhhui 2023-08-03

It's been 20 days and no progress, really slow. According to the official website, BMC's initial screening does not have high content requirements, which results in a large number of submissions. I don't understand how they control the rejection rate in the end.

Finally, I still accepted it.

May I ask what step the original poster is currently at? Any updates?

小木虫秦 2023-07-14

First submission, display: We've received your submission and are now running technical checks. Is everyone like this?

小木虫秦 2023-07-13

I would like to ask if all the experts submitted their manuscripts after registering an account on SPRINGER NATURE SNAPP? Why does it feel different from submitting to previous journals?

zhipingmail 2023-07-12

After the repair, there was no external review. It was directly received on July 2nd and was held by the editor for more than two months +_+!!

FFJ2022 2023-07-12

@crymylove, hello, do you have any news?

CryMyLove 2023-07-03

I don't know, but we only gave 14 days for revisions. We have now undergone another external audit, so it should be considered a major overhaul.

JackFeng 2023-07-03

Excuse me, are both minor and major repairs 14 days?

CryMyLove 2023-07-02

Alright, we have re-audited and it has been over a month. However, only one of the two reviewers has returned, and the other has not responded for half a day. When we emailed the editorial department, we received a template reply, which doesn't feel very helpful...

zhipingmail 2023-07-01

It has been almost two months since the minor revision was submitted, and it is still in the stage of the editor evaluating the revision. @CryMyLove, there has not been an email sent to Cui at the moment.

CryMyLove 2023-06-30

I would like to ask the original poster if they are planning to send an email to inquire. If so, should it be sent to the official website's email or directly to the editor? We have encountered a similar situation and it's giving us a headache...

Almost the same experience, submitted in early December of the 22nd year, received major revisions in early April of the 23rd year, submitted at the end of May, and currently under peer review.

zhipingmail 2023-06-13

2023.01 Submission, 2023.04 Minor revision, 2023.05 Early May completed and returned. It has been almost a month, and it has been continuously evaluated by the editor. Did the editor go on vacation??

I invested in February, and now I am still appointed as an editor. Once I invest, I don't need to worry about it anymore, otherwise it will drive me crazy.

宇兰酱 2023-05-30

May I ask at what stage is your article? Has it been sent for review? It has been more than 20 days and there has been no progress.

huiliao 2023-05-06

On May 6th, it changed back to Editor appointed, what a dog.

huiliao 2023-05-06

It's been a month, and I was previously appointed as an editor. Damn it, after one month, I have now become ready to be assigned to an editor again.

huiliao 2023-05-03

The most garbage magazine, bar none. It has been a month, previously it was always editor-appointed. Damn it, after one month it has become "Ready to be assigned to an editor" again. Trash magazine.

zhhhui 2023-04-27

Another reminder was sent, the editor said they have found a deputy editor to take over. There is no other choice but to hand it over to the Section Editor to handle and personally invite reviewers. I don't know how it will turn out in the end, but I originally approached it with a trial mentality, I just feel frustrated wasting so much time.

zhhhui 2023-04-25

This is a microbiology journal. How can it be compared to NC? NC is a comprehensive journal, and is it considered comparable just because the impact factor is close?

xuyunjian 2023-04-24

May I ask if "Submission under peer review" means it hasn't been sent for review yet? Because I haven't gone through the stages you mentioned, I assume it hasn't reached the hands of the editor yet?

zhhhui 2023-04-24

The speed is very slow, urging for the manuscript has no effect, the editors reply with template responses. Even though it is stated that an editor has been appointed, they reply saying that they have not yet found a reviewer. It has been almost two months and this status hasn't changed. Today, the status of editor appointment was updated, so maybe they have changed the handling editor?

ML 2023-04-23

Let me talk about my experience and give everyone a reference.
The magazine is definitely at the top in the field of microbiology, benchmarking NC. But this submission really made me very unhappy.
Submitted on November 3, 2022.
The editor was appointed throughout the early stage.
There was one change during the process, showing that 27 reviewers were invited.
On February 17, 2023, it was shown that one reviewer accepted the invitation for review.
On February 27, 2023, it was shown that the report had been returned.
On April 9, 2023, a reminder letter was sent.
On April 18, 2023, it was rejected (the reason being that they couldn't find a second reviewer, and the first reviewer's comments were only one page long, asking about some sample information, which I personally think could be answered. The editor said that based on the overall opinion of this reviewer, the submission was rejected).
Overall, this submission experience was very unpleasant and took five months. For students engaged in scientific research, it actually wasted quite a lot of precious time.

huiliao 2023-04-18

We submitted on the same day, and I was in peer review on the 4th day. However, there has been no progress since then. It's not just hearsay, it's really slow. Dependable.

xuyunjian 2023-04-15

I heard that this magazine is slow. After submitting on April 2nd, it became "Your submission has passed the technical checks and is now in peer review" on the 13th. Can any experienced peers please tell me if the article is under review or still with the editors?

huiliao 2023-04-12

No changes, too slow.
