• Reporting Guidelines: The appropriate Reporting Guidelines Checklist (e.g., CONSORT, PRISMA, STROBE, ARRIVE) has been completely filled out and attached as a supplementary file.

• Citations & References: References strictly follow the adapted ISO 690:2010(E) style, at least 70% of the cited works were published in the last five years, and DOIs are provided for all references.

• Author Fees: The authors acknowledge that while the Bioscience Journal does not charge submission or evaluation fees, an Article Processing Charge (APC) will be applied upon final acceptance of the manuscript.
