Where do I submit a BioTech manuscript?

Through the journal's own submission system. The address is in the Submission row of the Structure at a Glance table on this page. SciSpace does not submit for you.

How do I use the BioTech template in SciSpace?

Click Start Writing, add your topic and article type to the prompt, review the draft against the rules on this page, then export and submit through the journal's portal.

Can I submit to BioTech and another journal at the same time?

No. Journals, BioTech included, expect a manuscript to be under review at one journal at a time. Wait for the decision or withdraw formally before you submit elsewhere.

What should my data availability statement say for BioTech?

Say where readers can find the data behind your results: a repository with a DOI, supplementary files, or the reason the data cannot be shared. Check the BioTech author guide for any required wording.

How do I know my paper fits BioTech?

Read the BioTech aims and scope and skim two or three recent articles. If your question, methods, and audience match what the journal publishes, you are in the right place.

What belongs in supplementary material?

Large datasets, extended tables, extra figures, code, and detailed protocols. Reference each file in the main text, and keep the core BioTech manuscript readable without them.

How to Use the BioTech Template | A Step-by-Step Guide

Authored by Sumalatha Gangadhar | Published on 28 September, 2026

Use this BioTech template when the manuscript has to match that journal before you upload it. Check the current rules on the BioTech journal page.

What is the BioTech Template?

It is the writing shell for BioTech: title and authors, the abstract, the body, declarations, figures, and the reference list. The limits that decide a desk reject are on the journal page linked above.

What's actually in a BioTech submission:

A BioTech submission has a title page with authors and affiliations, a structured abstract of up to 200 words, keywords, the main text for your article type, declarations, the reference list, and figures and tables.

What separates a clean submission from one that gets kicked back:

An abstract that breaks the rule (a structured abstract of up to 200 words).
References that do not follow the stated style: ACS reference style.
The wrong number or kind of keywords (3–10 keywords).
A missing declaration: ethics approval, competing interests, funding, or data availability.

Read the full rules on the journal page linked above before you upload.

What does this BioTech Template include?

The sections a BioTech submission is built from, in order: title page, abstract, keywords, main text, declarations, references, figures, and tables. It does not replace the journal's own checklist. The journal also publishes its own Word file: official BioTech Word file.

A structured abstract of no more than 200 words.

Keywords

3–10 keywords.

References

ACS reference style.

Peer Review

Single-anonymous (single-blind) peer review.

Quick Tips for Using the BioTech Template

Write the abstract last and count it. BioTech asks for a structured abstract of up to 200 words.
Choose keywords to the rule: 3–10 keywords.
Keep declarations with the manuscript, not in a separate note you might forget to upload.

Best Practices

Open the author guide once before you draft and once before you upload. Match a recent BioTech paper for depth, headings, and figure style.

Before You Submit: Final Check

The abstract meets the rule (a structured abstract of up to 200 words).
The reference style matches the author guide, and every citation has a matching entry.
The keywords follow the stated count.
Declarations are included: ethics, competing interests, funding, and data availability.
Figures are publication-ready and cited in order.

Then submit on the journal's portal, not from this page.
