Example: Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Faculty of Science and Engineering, Dibrugarh University, Dibrugarh 786004, Assam, India.
Abstract
The abstract should be written in an unstructured format in not more than 250 words. The abstract should briefly highlight the background, methods, main results, conclusions, and future scope of the study.
Graphical abstract (optional)

For those type of figures, a statement 'Reproduced with permission from Hmar et al. 2022' must be written in the figure caption. If any figures are reproduced without proper permission, it will be considered as a case of plagiarism.

Disclosure for the use of artificial intelligence (AI)
AI models like ChatGPT do not qualify as authors for SciPhy. The use of AI should be limited to correction of grammatical errors or improvement of the language. AI should not be used to entirely draft a paper. If authors are using AI to improve the quality of the grammar or language, they should make a new section heading as "Disclosure for the use of artificial intelligence". Under this section, the authors should state that "An AI model (name of the model) was used to improve the quality of the grammar/language".

Reference style
The references should be arranged in the Vancouver format. We do not accept other styles. Few examples are provided in the journal template.
Reference category
If possible, the authors should cite the most recent references to keep up with the scientific trends. This will not include review papers or few research fields that has less publications. Based on their publication year, the references are categorized into:
Authorship policy
In terms of planning the study design, data analysis, statistical analysis, software, executing work, writing, and editing, a significant contribution should be made by all contributing authors such as the first author, co-authors, and corresponding authors. Authors are encouraged to get familiar with the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) guidelines.
Corresponding author
The corresponding author will take the responsibility of communicating with the editors from the initial submission till publication. Depending on the requirement, there may be two corresponding authors. In case of two corresponding authors, the asterisk '*' sign should accompany their names in the manuscript and the initials of the authors should accompany their email address in the manuscript.
Change of authorship
During the review process, the corresponding author may make a request to the editor-in-chief to make changes in the authorship with valid reasons to justify the request. Addition or deletion of authors after acceptance of manuscript is not allowed.
Plagiarism policy
If possible, authors are requested to submit a plagiarism report from a commercial software (or from a free online server). For all types of articles, the plagiarism percentage should be kept as low as possible (maximum upper limit 20% excluding references). Even if the plagiarism percentage remains below 20%, the authors may be further asked to reduce the plagiarism to increase the authenticity of the manuscript.
Ethic policy
Studies involving animal, cell lines, or human participants should be carried out keeping in mind the standard guidelines set by OECD, CPCSEA, ICH, Animal Welfare Board of India, ICMJE recommendations, as well as other organizations. Ethical clearance with proper documents should be obtained from the concerned authority (for example, Institutional Animal Ethics Committee) to carry out the studies. Also, sufficient details regarding the document numbers should be mentioned in the manuscript.
Plants
Medicinal plants should be collected in minimal amounts to avoid exploitation of natural resources and to avoid disturbing the local ecosystem. The World Health Organization guidelines on good agricultural and collection practices for medicinal plants should be followed.
Retraction policy
Retraction guidelines provided by the Committee on Publication Ethics will be followed. A notice of retraction will be given to a paper if the findings are unreliable, unethical, plagiarized, or manipulated. To maintain integrity, the retracted paper will remain visible on the journal page. However, a notice of retraction will accompany the paper.
Guidelines for editors
The editor-in-chief will be responsible for searching suitable reviewers that are experts in the concerned field. If potential reviewers are suggested by the authors, the editor-in-chief should contact the suggested reviewers. Following SciPhy's double-blind peer-review policy, the editor should make sure that the reviewer completes their task within 2-4 weeks. After peer-review, the editor-in-chief will evaluate the reviewer comments for a decision. Following this, the editor-in-chief will contact the corresponding author of the manuscript to inform about the decision and to check the status of their submitted manuscript in the online submission system. In case of revision, the editor-in-chief should direct the authors to submit the corrected manuscript to the editor-in-chief. After revision, the editor-in-chief will make the final editorial assessment. If the manuscript is accepted for publication, the editor-in-chief will send a galley proof to the authors.
