This review is typically conducted by an ethics committee or institutional review board (IRB) to protect participants&#8217; rights, safety, and well-being.<\/p><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Journal Advances of Nutrition Science and Technology is committed to upholding the integrity of the published work, which primarily relies on the ethical practices of all individuals involved. We encourage our authors, reviewers, and editors to consult the Guidelines on research ethics and published codes of conduct developed by the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">Committee on Publication Ethics\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0(COPE).<\/span><\/p><h4>Research Involving Human Subjects<\/h4><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">When reporting research involving human subjects, human material, human tissues, or human data, authors must declare that the investigations were conducted under the principles outlined in the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">Declaration of Helsinki of 1975<\/span><span class=\"s1\">, revised in 2013. This declaration confirms, as stated in point 23, that the ethical committee of the relevant institution approved the study. The authors must also affirm that the study followed the ethical standards outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">The Materials and Methods section of the Article should include an Ethical Approval letter containing, at minimum, a statement of the project identification code, approval date, and names of the ethical committee members, along with their affiliations. Detailed information about individual participants&#8217; data should be provided. Still, private information that can identify participants need not be included unless relevant to the research (e.g., photographs of participants&#8217; faces showing a specific symptom). If the study is exempt from requiring ethical approval, this should be mentioned in the manuscript, along with an explanation of the reasons for the exemption. The editors reserve the right to reject any submission that does not adhere to these requirements.<\/span><\/p><h4>Example of the Ethical Statement:<\/h4><p class=\"p5\">&#8220;All participants provided informed consent before their involvement in the study. The research was conducted under the principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki (https:\/\/www.wma.net\/policies-post\/wma-declaration-of-helsinki\/), and the study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of XXX (Project identification code).&#8221;<\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li2\">Written informed consent for publication must be obtained from participating individuals or patients who can be identified (including the patients).<\/li><li class=\"li6\">Patients&#8217; initials or other personal identifiers must not appear in any image.<\/li><li class=\"li2\">For manuscripts that include any case details, personal information, and\/or images of patients, authors must obtain signed informed consent from patients (or their relatives\/guardians) before submitting to the <i>Journal Advances of Nutrition Science and Technology.<\/i><\/li><li class=\"li6\">Patient details must be anonymized as far as possible, e.g., do not mention specific age, ethnicity, or occupation where they are not relevant to the conclusions.<\/li><li class=\"li6\">You must otherwise provide a detailed justification of why informed consent is not necessary.<\/li><li class=\"li2\">Written informed consent for publication\u00a0must be obtained from individuals or patients who can be identified, including the patients themselves. A downloadable template is available for this purpose. A\u00a0<span class=\"s3\">template<\/span>\u00a0is available to download.<\/li><li class=\"li2\">Images must not contain\u00a0patients&#8217; initials or other personal identifiers.<\/li><li class=\"li2\">For manuscripts that include case details, personal information, and\/or images of patients, authors must obtain\u00a0signed informed consent from the patients themselves or their relatives\/guardians\u00a0before submitting to <i>the Journal Advances of Nutrition Science and Technology.<\/i><\/li><li class=\"li2\">Patient details should be anonymized\u00a0to the fullest extent possible. Specific age, ethnicity, or occupation should not be mentioned if they are not relevant to the conclusions drawn.<\/li><li class=\"li6\">If informed consent is deemed unnecessary, a detailed justification must be provided.<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Journal Advances of Nutrition Science and Technology requires an approval, permission, or release form that grants an unlimited license for publication in all formats (including print, electronic, and online), including sub-licensed and reprinted versions (such as translations and derived works), as well as in other works and products under an open access license. To respect the privacy of patients and other individuals, please do not submit signed forms. However, the Journal reserves the right to request signed forms from authors if necessary.<\/span><\/p><h4>Clinical Trial Registration<\/h4><p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">According to the <\/span><span class=\"s4\">World Health Organization<\/span><span class=\"s1\"> (WHO), a clinical trial is defined as &#8220;any research study that prospectively assigns human participants or groups of humans to one or more health-related interventions to evaluate the effects on health outcomes.&#8221; In this context, intervention refers to &#8220;an act performed for, with, or on behalf of a person or population with the purpose of assessing, improving, maintaining, promoting, or modifying health, functioning, or health conditions.&#8221; The health-related outcome encompasses any change in the health of an individual or population resulting from the intervention.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The Author is required to register prospective clinical trials (phase II-IV trials) in the appropriate publicly available repositories, such as\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">www.clinicaltrials.gov\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0or any WHO International Clinical Trial Registry Platform. The Trial Registration Number (TRN) and date of registration must be included as the last line of the abstract in the manuscript. For clinical trials that have not been registered prospectively, authors are encouraged to register retrospectively to ensure the complete and proper publication of the results. In such cases, the TRN, date of registration, and the phrase &#8216;retrospectively registered&#8217; should be included as the last line of the abstract.<\/span><\/p><h4>Ethical Guidelines for the Use of Animals in Research<\/h4><p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">The editors will require that the potential benefits derived from any research involving harm to animals outweigh the costs endured by the animals and that the procedures followed are unlikely to cause significant offense to the majority of readers. Authors should ensure that their research adheres to the widely accepted &#8216;3Rs&#8217; principles:<\/span><\/p><ul class=\"ul1\"><li class=\"li6\">Replacement of animals with alternatives whenever possible,<\/li><li class=\"li6\">Reduction in the number of animals used, and<\/li><li class=\"li6\">Refinement of experimental conditions and procedures to minimize harm to animals.<\/li><\/ul><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">In addition, any experimental work must comply with relevant national legislation regarding the use of animals for research. Authors are encouraged to consult the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">Code of Practice for the Housing and Care of Animals Used in Scientific Procedures for further guidance<\/span><span class=\"s1\">.<br \/>Manuscripts that present original research conducted on experimental animals must provide information about approval obtained from a duly constituted research ethics committee. At the very least, the Methods section should include the project identification code, the date of approval, and the name of the ethics committee or institutional review board.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Journal Advances of Nutrition Science and Technology supports the adoption of the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">ARRIVE guidelines\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">for reporting experiments involving live animals. Authors and reviewers are encouraged to use the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">ARRIVE guidelines\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">as a\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">checklist\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">to ensure comprehensive reporting.<\/span><\/p><h4>Research Involving Cell Lines<\/h4><p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">The Materials and Methods sections of submissions reporting research with cell lines should include specific information regarding the origin of the cell lines (such as humans), when and where they were obtained, whether they have been authenticated, and the method of authentication. Additionally, references should be provided to published papers or commercial sources, including the company name, cell type, number of cell lines, and batch information. If previously unpublished de novo cell lines were used or if cell lines were obtained from another laboratory as a gift, it is essential to provide details of institutional review board or ethics committee approval. Furthermore, confirmation of written informed consent is required if the cell line is of human origin.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">It is recommended that the NCBI database be checked for misidentification and contamination of human cell lines prior to conducting the study or submitting the manuscript to ensure accuracy and prevent potential issues with cell lines. This precaution can save significant time and effort, as it alerts the Author to possible problems associated with the cell line. For further information, please refer to the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">International Cell Line Authentication Committee<\/span><span class=\"s1\">.<\/span><\/p><h4>Research Involving Plants<\/h4><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Experimental research involving plants, whether they are cultivated or wild, should adhere to institutional, national, or international guidelines. Authors are advised to ensure compliance with the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">Convention on Biological Diversity\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">and the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">Convention on the Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora<\/span><span class=\"s1\">.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s5\">For each submitted manuscript, supporting genetic information and origin details are necessary<\/span><span class=\"s1\">. In the case of research manuscripts involving rare and non-model plants (excluding commonly studied plants like\u00a0Arabidopsis thaliana, Nicotiana benthamiana, Oriza sativa, and other typical model plants), voucher specimens should be deposited in an accessible herbarium or museum. Future investigators may request vouchers to verify the material&#8217;s identity, especially if taxonomic rearrangements are anticipated. The vouchers should include information on the collected populations&#8217; location (GPS coordinates), date of collection, and relevant documentation on the specific part(s) used in the study. Exceptions may be made for rare, threatened, or endangered species, but authors must explain in the cover letter.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">Please note that the editors retain the right to reject any submission that does not adhere to these requirements.<\/span><\/p><h4>Reconsidering Ethics Approval<\/h4><p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\">If a study has not received approval from the ethics committee before the commencement of the research, obtaining retrospective ethical approval is not possible. Consequently, the Article cannot be considered for peer review, and the decision on whether to proceed to peer review is at the discretion of the Editor.<\/span><\/p><h4>Ethical Approval for Reconsidering Studies<\/h4><p class=\"p8\"><span class=\"s1\">Though retrospective studies are conducted using existing data or materials, where obtaining informed consent may not be necessary or difficult, ethical approval may still be required based on the laws and national ethical guidelines of the respective country. Therefore, authors should check with their relevant institutions to ensure compliance with specific legal requirements.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div
