Can we use the same procedure from published papers without rewording materials synthesis/reaction steps for new paper writing?
Many times it happens, the rewarded sentences are difficult to understand and follow. Unless some modification is done in the procedure, rewording is meaningless.
Dear researcher, What is your opinion about this?

Hi, Amid Laxman Sadgar
It is important to use different wording and phrasing for sure. If the wording in a prior study is so spot on that you can't find another way to describe the procedure, then it's important to quote directly from the original study and cite it.
All the best to you!

If you are following standard procedures for experiments then you can use same wordings and refences.
