Virtual Screening for Potential Inhibitors of Human Hexokinase II for the Development of Anti-Dengue Therapeutics

Suriyea Tanbin, Fazia Adyani Ahmad Fuad, Azzmer Azzar Abdul Hamid · 28 Dec 2020

Dengue fever, which is a disease caused by the dengue virus (DENV), is a major unsolved issue in many tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. The absence of treatment that effectively prevent further viral propagation inside the human's body resulted in a high number of deaths globally each year. Thus, novel anti-dengue therapies are…

A Review of Recent Advances in Microbial Fuel Cells: Preparation, Operation, and Application

Jianfei Wang, Kexin Ren, Yan Zhu et al. · 30 Sep 2022

The microbial fuel cell has been considered a promising alternative to traditional fossil energy. It has great potential in energy production, waste management, and biomass valorization. However, it has several technical issues, such as low power generation efficiency and operational stability. These issues limit the scale-up and commercialization of MFC systems. This review presents the…

Ethical Challenges in Organoid Use

Vasiliki Mollaki · 28 Jun 2021

Organoids hold great promises for numerous applications in biomedicine and biotechnology. Despite its potential in science, organoid technology poses complex ethical challenges that may hinder any future benefits for patients and society. This study aims to analyze the multifaceted ethical issues raised by organoids and recommend measures that must be taken at various levels to…

Applications of CRISPR-Cas9 as an Advanced Genome Editing System in Life Sciences

Kamand Tavakoli, Alireza Pour‐Aboughadareh, Farzad Kianersi et al. · 6 Jul 2021

Targeted nucleases are powerful genomic tools to precisely change the target genome of living cells, controlling functional genes with high exactness. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats associated protein 9 (CRISPR-Cas9) genome editing system has been identified as one of the most useful biological tools in genetic engineering that is taken from adaptive immune…

Data Management in Biobanking: Strategies, Challenges, and Future Directions

Ramez Alkhatib, Karoline I. Gaede · 2 Sep 2024

Biobanking plays a pivotal role in biomedical research by providing standardized processing, precise storing, and management of biological sample collections along with the associated data. Effective data management is a prerequisite to ensure the integrity, quality, and accessibility of these resources. This review provides a current landscape of data management in biobanking, discussing key challenges,…

BioTech template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the BioTech format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the BioTech template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official MDPI format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does BioTech use?
BioTech uses Numbered (MDPI) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith, A.; Jones, B.; Lee, C. A Representative Article Title. BioTech 2023, 12, 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to BioTech?
No. DocuGuru generates the mdpi LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a MDPI-ready BioTech document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the BioTech template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the BioTech format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is BioTech?
BioTech - MDPI Journal. It is a multidisciplinary journal, published by MDPI.
Can I export a submission-ready BioTech PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official BioTech template (the mdpi class) that is ready to submit to MDPI, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the BioTech template cost?
You can start writing in the BioTech template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready BioTech PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
