Publication Integrity

Crossmark Policy

Crossmark is a CrossRef initiative that helps readers verify the current status and reliability of scholarly content. JBRES uses Crossmark to communicate updates, corrections, and retractions transparently, ensuring the integrity and trustworthiness of published research.

CrossMark Policy (Crossref)

The Journal of Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences (JBRES) applies the CrossMark logo (a service from Crossref) to its hosted content. CrossMark is a visible signal that your article is part of a publishing system designed for trust, transparency, and long-term reliability. It helps readers confirm whether they are viewing the current, authoritative version of your work.

Credible Citation Record

Open Access Confidence

What is CrossMark?

CrossMark is a Crossref initiative that provides a standard way for readers to locate the authoritative version of a scholarly document. When a reader clicks the CrossMark icon, they can view key status information—such as whether the document is current, or if updates (like corrections) exist.

Why this matters for authors

CrossMark strengthens reader trust. It helps ensure your article remains clearly identifiable as the correct version, especially when shared across platforms, repositories, and citation tools.

How CrossMark Supports Your Publication

Version Control

Confirms the current version of your article and helps prevent confusion caused by duplicated or outdated copies online.

Correction Visibility

If a correction or update is ever needed, CrossMark provides a transparent path for readers to see the change clearly.

Better Linking & Metadata

Works alongside Crossref DOIs to improve discoverability, reliable citations, and long-term accessibility.

Global Reader Trust

A visible indicator that your work is published under best practices expected by the international research community.

CrossMark & Open Access

Open access accelerates knowledge sharing, but articles are often re-shared across multiple platforms. CrossMark helps researchers, librarians, and readers identify the trusted “version of record”. This is especially useful when your article is accessed through institutional repositories, academic social networks, and citation managers.

For Readers
Instant confidence that they are reading the correct and current document.
For Authors
Greater trust, cleaner citations, and better long-term scholarly reputation.
For Institutions
Clear correction paths and stronger integrity signals for research outputs.
