Submitting to ChemBioEng Reviews goes smoothly when your draft already matches the journal's own rules. Editors screen new manuscripts against the ChemBioEng Reviews guide for authors before peer review, so formatting, structure, and required statements should be right on the first draft rather than repaired during upload. This template sets that structure up for you.
It is a manuscript shell aligned to ChemBioEng Reviews. It covers front matter, the abstract the journal expects, a body organized to the journal's article types, and a reference list in the journal's required style. Confirm current scope and article types on the ChemBioEng Reviews journal page before you draft.
Prepare the title, authors, affiliations, and ORCID iDs. Write the abstract to the journal's rule and word limit, organize the body to the article type, and apply the required reference style from the first citation. Complete every declaration (ethics, competing interests, funding, data availability) the ChemBioEng Reviews guide for authors lists, and cite figures and tables in order.
The common failure modes are formatting or reference style that does not match the guide for authors, missing required statements, and an incomplete portal checklist. Clear all three against the ChemBioEng Reviews guide for authors before you submit.
The shell mirrors what editorial staff check first: article-type fit, the abstract rules, required declarations, and the journal's reference style. For more detail see the author resources. When your draft is ready, upload it through the journal's submission system.
| Element | ChemBioEng Rev requirement |
|---|---|
| Abstract | Unstructured. Maximum 1200 characters (including blanks). The abstract should be as informative as possible, but the presentation of experimental details should be avoided. Please do not present detailed/numbered values. The abstract should contain several keywords to aid finding the paper online. The abstract should contain neither hints to graphical elements or tables in the paper nor to references or equations, as the abstract will be found independently (e.g., in databases). Please do not copy sentences of the introductory part |
| Main text | Organize sections for the chosen article type; no single overall word limit is stated in the accessible guide |
| Declarations | Ethics approval/consent as applicable; competing interests; funding; data availability |
| Figures/tables | Publication-ready; cited in order |
| Supplemental | Upload separately when used |
| Keywords | Maximum 5 keywords should be provided in alphabetical order. Avoid abbreviations. One keyword is limited to three words |
| References | Numbered citations (inline square brackets) within the text, references numbered in the order of their citation. Each numbered reference should contain only one literature citation, not multiple sub-parts (a, b, c...). No submission requirement for formatting references - please use a consistent reference style throughout the manuscript. Examples provided use Chicago reference style. List all authors, but if the number exceeds six please list three followed by 'et al'. Include the full length article title, and the full length journal name. DOI is optional but highly recommended. If the manuscript is accepted, typesetters will update the formatting into the journal style |
| Peer review | Peer-reviewed journal. Specific peer review model (single-blind, double-blind, etc.) is not stated in the author guidelines. Based on Wiley's standard practice for science journals, single-blind review is most common, but the specific model for this journal is not explicitly stated |

Read the ChemBioEng Reviews guide for authors once before drafting and once before upload. Draft the abstract after results are stable. Set the reference style before adding citations. Keep a cover letter that states your contribution and fit to ChemBioEng Reviews in under a page.
Skim two or three recent ChemBioEng Rev papers to calibrate depth and figure style. Make the novelty clear in the first two pages. Deposit data and code when the policy on the ChemBioEng Reviews journal page requires it. Disclose any preprint or conference version with identifiers in the cover letter.
Do one focused pass against the ChemBioEng Reviews guide for authors: scope, length, reference style, required declarations, and figure quality. Then submit through the journal's submission system.
