title: A brief review of common grammatical and scientific errors seen in reviewing protein purification manuscripts for 25 years.
abstract: This review is a compilation of the most common grammatical and scientific errors I have encountered during my many years of reviewing manuscripts on protein biochemistry. This review is part of the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the journal Protein Expression and Purification. I hope it will help authors in preparing better manuscripts.
