Journal publications aim to advance the state of the art or understanding in a specific scientific discipline. Hence, a journal only publishes papers that meet its scope of publication and immediately rejects those that do not.

AuthorONE identifies the concepts discussed in your paper and matches them with those of the journal to provide you with an instant scope match result so you can avoid rejection and save time. Even better, it suggests journals you can publish in so you don't spend time finding the right journal for your manuscript.

Summary

Abstract Background: The main goal of this study was to assess the blood feeding behaviour and the contribution Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles gambiae. Methods: The study was carried out in 6 districts of 2 regions of Benin (Alibori and Donga). Introduction In the study area targeted for IRS campaign, where the 2 species are sympatric, the recorded data will be used to compare the impact of IRS on each of the 2 Anopheles populations. The objective of this study was to assess the blood feeding behaviour and the contribution in malaria transmission of each of the 2 sibling species (An. gambiae, two sibling vector species living in sympatry in the study area and which were likely exposed to the same selection pressure for resistance. Conclusion But, a good impact on malaria control in Alibori and Donga is expected if pirimiphos methyl (organophosphate) is used again for IRS in Benin as in previous years, because of the very low level of the ace-1 mutation in both species. coluzzii is characterized by lower frequencies of the ace-1 mutation.

Example

  • Grammar, Usage, and Syntax
    Example - 1

    Most of the VacA is containcontained in the membranes of vacuoles.

    Comment: Verb form: Change the verb 'contain' to its past participle form or -ing form, or insert 'to' before this verb, or delete 'is'.

    Example - 2

    The yak were colored white to distinguish them, but it was difficult to make out the difference.

    Comment: Possible missing verb: Please check if a verb like 'is' or 'was' is required after 'it'.

  • Spelling and Typos
    Example - 1

    Affinity for LFA-1 may be of general importance in the immuno-suppressive effctseffects of VacA.

    Comment: Please check the spelling.

    Example - 2

    LFA-1 is also exposed on the surface of other lukocytesleukocytes including granulocytes.

    Comment: Please check the spelling.

  • Writing Enhancement
    Example - 1

    The yak like to roam freely in nature and do grazing graze in pastures with their herders guarding them.

    Comment: Eliminate wordiness: Here 'do' denotes action, but 'grazing' denotes the real action, thus making this phrase redundant. Change 'do grazing' to the present or past tense form of 'grazing'. There could be prepositions connected with 'grazing' that need to be deleted or an adverb that should be shifted.

    Example - 2

    They’reThey are terrified and could have undergone trauma.

    Comment: Formal writing tip: Use 'They are'. Contractions are usually spelled out in academic papers.

Inclusive Language

Academic writing needs to be objective, unbiased, and factual. Use of inappropriate, biased language can lead to rejection at the desk review stage, without your paper reaching peer review.

AuthorONE checks your writing for the use of biased or inappropriate language and suggests corrections so you can avoid desk rejection for inadvertent use of inappropriate language and reach peer review faster.

Example

Example - 1

Social problems among epileptics

Comment: Bias-free language tip: Use people-first language to maintain the integrity and worth of all people as human beings. Replace 'epileptics' with 'individuals with epilepsy' or 'people with epilepsy'.

Example - 2

The Industrial Revolution brought about an irreversible transformation in mankind’s relationship with nature.

Comment: Bias-free language tip: To avoid gender-biased language, consider using ‘humankind’, ‘human beings’, ‘humanity’, ‘human race’, or ‘humans’ instead of ‘mankind’. However, if this term is required by the context, please retain the word choice.

Word Count Reduction

Concise writing is crucial to academic writing. Lengthy writing can discourage your readers and hinder comprehensibility. Journals often impose strict word count limits.
