Open Access

The International Journal of Bio Sciences and Chemistry provides open access to all published articles. Readers can access the full text of published research without a subscription or other access charges.

Articles published by the journal are available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) License. This license allows others to share and adapt published work, including for commercial purposes, provided that appropriate credit is given to the original authors and publication.

Under the CC BY 4.0 License, separate permission from the author or journal is generally not required for uses permitted by the license, provided that the applicable attribution and license requirements are met.

Author Rights

Authors retain copyright in their original work, subject to the applicable copyright and licensing terms.

Authors are free to use their published articles for academic, educational, and research purposes. This includes incorporating an article into a thesis or dissertation, sharing it with colleagues, presenting research at conferences or seminars, and using it for teaching, laboratory reference, or further scientific investigation.

When reusing or sharing published work, authors should acknowledge its original publication in the International Journal of Bio Sciences and Chemistry and include the DOI or official article link whenever available.

Once an article is published under the CC BY 4.0 License, the license granted to the public cannot ordinarily be revoked for existing recipients who comply with its terms, even if the author's circumstances or preferences later change.

Self-Archiving and Academic Sharing

Authors may share their published articles through institutional repositories, academic profiles, research-sharing platforms, personal academic websites, and other appropriate scholarly channels, in accordance with the CC BY 4.0 License and any applicable third-party rights.

When sharing an article, authors should preserve the original publication details, including the article title, author names, journal name, year of publication, and DOI where available. A link to the official journal article may also be provided.

Where an article has been corrected or retracted, authors should ensure that shared copies and citations accurately reflect the article's current publication status.

Reuse and Attribution

The CC BY 4.0 License permits others to share, reproduce, distribute, and adapt published work, including for commercial purposes, subject to the license terms and appropriate attribution.

A proper attribution should normally include the author(s), article title, International Journal of Bio Sciences and Chemistry, year of publication, and DOI where available. It should also include a reference or link to the CC BY 4.0 License and indicate whether changes were made to the original work.

Reuse, adaptation, or distribution of an article by a third party does not imply that the journal or the original author endorses the resulting work, product, interpretation, or publication.

If an article contains material belonging to a third party that is not covered by the CC BY 4.0 License, the relevant copyright, permissions, and usage restrictions must also be respected. This may apply to scientific figures, photographs, illustrations, datasets, chemical structures, or other materials credited to external rights holders.

Author Responsibility

Authors are responsible for ensuring that their use, sharing, and reuse of published material comply with the applicable license terms and any relevant third-party rights.

Self-archiving or sharing an article does not, by itself, transfer copyright ownership to another person, platform, or organization.

Where an article is subsequently corrected or retracted, its reuse and sharing should reflect the applicable Corrections and Retractions Policy. Authors and other users should avoid presenting outdated or retracted findings as current, reliable scientific evidence.
