It is well known that COPE Publication Ethics are rules of conduct generally agreed upon when publishing results of scientific research work. Generally, it is a standard that protects intellectual property and forbids the re-publication of another's work without proper credit. It also forbids the use of plagiarism of another's efforts. Data and information published as an original must be original. The journal takes into consideration research misconduct as fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism in proposing, performing, or reviewing research, or in reporting research results. Inappropriate image manipulation is one form of fabrication or falsification that our journal can identify. They can create misleading results. Editors work with our publisher to consider relevant regulations, and to decide whether and how to refer cases of suspected misconduct, and what action to be taken.
