Rely on our team for plagiarism prevention in journals. We use iThenticate at submission and pre-acceptance stages, ensuring originality and academic integrity.
Plagiarism Detection and Prevention in Academic Journals
One plagiarised article can undo years of a journal's reputation. As an Editor-in-Chief, you can rely on our expert team to safeguard your journal against plagiarism and even minor similarities — every submission is screened with iThenticate at two critical points, and suspected cases are handled according to COPE-advised flowcharts.
Want systematic screening for your journal?
We can run iThenticate screening and COPE-based case handling for your journal — whether it publishes with us or on its own platform. Priced by custom quotation.
How the screening works
Why standard tools matter
Using recognised screening tools is critically important for every journal.
Maintaining academic integrity
Screening helps ensure that published work is original and authentic — upholding the journal's reputation for integrity and reliability in the academic community.
Detecting subtle similarities
Modern checkers detect not just exact matches but paraphrasing and partial copying — the cases that would otherwise slip through unnoticed.
Saving time and resources
Automated screening frees editors and reviewers to focus on the quality of the science rather than policing text overlap.
Built into every Brieflands journal. Our screening runs on iThenticate through Crossref's Similarity Check service, integrated directly into the NeoScriber workflow. DOAJ highly recommends plagiarism screening, and Scopus and PMC evaluators expect a stated, practised policy on misconduct — systematic screening is the evidence behind that policy.
