Hello, may I ask if you have uploaded a .csv file containing the drawing data when you submitted? For research articles, is it necessary to submit a .csv file? Thank you.

Accepted on July 11th

It took nearly 8 months from submission to revision, which is a bit long. There were 2 reviewers, and their suggestions were very professional and helpful for the article. After the revision, it was accepted smoothly. If there is no urgency to publish, submitting to this journal is still feasible, although it may take a little longer.

Will it display "with editor"? Why is mine still "submissions being processed" for 20 days?

桃花ddk 2023-07-11

My submissions have been processing all the time. Is there anything wrong? Could you please point it out?

May I ask how long does it take for the initial review of this journal before it is submitted for review?

May I ask, how can I contact the editor? Is it through the action links, and then send an email?

It seems that the notification for fees has been sent via email, but the payment process is done on the website and can be completed using Alipay or credit card.

Dear, "under review" means that it is already in the reviewing process, right? The email notification mentioned that it would take at least 8 weeks for the review, didn't it?

I submitted it on April 21st last year, and it has been under review. I received the editor's reply for major revisions on March 23rd this year and uploaded the revised manuscript on April 14th. It was accepted the next day, after nearly a year.

The first submission to SCI was successful, with a few close calls. During the submission process, I had to write to the editor multiple times (for forgetting to send for external review, changing authors, requesting manuscript updates, changing author email addresses), and there was a second round of revisions due to not responding to one reviewer's comments. Overall, it feels like I encountered every possible issue during the submission process. However, it was ultimately published online successfully. My research focus is on the efficacy of food products. The first review came back with comments from 6 reviewers, and the second review only had comments from the reviewer I did not respond to, who did not recommend acceptance. However, just two days after returning the revised manuscript for the second review, the editor accepted it directly! The editor seems very good! However, everyone should be extra careful when responding to reviewer comments and avoid making mistakes like mine. I also wish everyone success in their experiments and smooth publication!
