Manuscript Editing for Microorganisms Journal Articles
Launched in 2013, Microorganisms offers an advanced forum for studies of prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms, viruses, and prions. It encourages authors to publish experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. MDPI publishes it monthly online and fully open access.
Articles, reviews, and case reports have no maximum length, provided the text is concise and comprehensive. A single-paragraph abstract of about 200 words follows a background, methods, results, and conclusions structure without headings. Between three and ten keywords come after it. Citations are numbered in square brackets before punctuation, with full journal article titles. Sequences are deposited in GenBank, EMBL, or DDBJ before submission, with accession numbers in the Materials and Methods. A Data Availability Statement is mandatory, and ARRIVE, CONSORT, and PRISMA apply by study type. Authors are responsible for correct English. Our editors bring the English to the journal's standard and check strain and species names. Submissions go through MDPI's SuSy system with a cover letter.
Our Promise
We will ensure that the final draft you receive is completely ready to submit to Microorganisms. We work with you until it is ready or refund your payment in full. That commitment has held since 2002.
Our editors do not have access to your manuscript until an order is placed. Your draft is secure until you decide to proceed.
Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Microorganisms
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Microorganisms.
MDPI's instructions for authors cover abstracts, sequence deposition, and references. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our scientific editing services include biological copy editing, line editing, LaTeX and Overleaf editing, and Vancouver and author-date citation formatting. Academic proofreading covers the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for Frontiers in Microbiology and the International Journal of Molecular Sciences.
