• Checks for Plagiarism
• Welcome to Journal of Oleo Science

Waivers to APCs are provided automatically when the corresponding author is from a “Group A” Research 4Life country. In cases of demonstrated financial hardship, the journal will consider a pre-submission application for a waiver from any corresponding author to jos@jocs-office.or.jp. Applications cannot be made after the peer review process has begun. The ability of an author to pay the APC does not influence editorial decisions. To avoid any possibility of undue influence, Editors involved with the decision-making process for articles are not involved in any deliberations on waivers.
