Work involving human or animal subjects or tissues (animal and human rights)
Journal of Bioscience and Applied Research endorses the ARRIVE Guidelines for reporting in vivo animal experiments. Whenever appropriate, authors should include in the Materials and Methods (Experimental Procedures) section:
• A statement indicating that the experiments were performed in accordance with named national legislation, where it exists, or, in its absence, with the named institutional/local body concerned with the ethics of experimentation (e.g. the National Research Council, or NIH in the USA). Experiments should be carried out in accordance with the European Communities Council Directive of 24 November 1986 (86/609/EEC) or with the Guidelines laid down by the NIH in the USA regarding the care and use of animals for experimental procedures.
• A full description of the anaesthetic and surgical procedures used, and of peri-operative care.
• Evidence that authors took adequate steps to ensure that animals did not suffer unnecessarily at any stage of an experiment, whether acute or chronic.
Research involving human subjects should comply with the Code of Ethics of the World Medical Association (Declaration of Helsinki; http://www.cirp.org/library/ethics/helsinki/). If human subjects are used, manuscripts must be accompanied by a statement in the Methods section, indicating that:
• The experiments were undertaken with the understanding and written consent of each subject.
• The study methodologies conformed to the standards set by the Declaration of Helsinki.
• The study methodologies were approved by the local ethics committee.
Authors should ensure that all risks are minimised and the subjects are not injured and do not feel they have been abused as a result of participating in the study. Fully informed consent should always be sought.
In cases of experiments involving minors, in addition to meeting above mentioned precautions, evidence must be presented that the experiments were performed with the understanding and consent of the legal guardian.
The Editor reserves the right to reject a paper if there is doubt as to whether appropriate procedures have been used.
