Style request : [Biotechnology Journal]

We have just submitted a manuscript to Biotechnology Journal:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/18607314

They have a new style for the references but this style is only available under EndNote so I need to create it on Zotero.

The style is close to those of "Gene Therapy". Below are editor instructions and examples to create the Biotechnology Journal style:
((References are listed in the order in which they appear in the text, and then in the tables and figure legends.

In-text citations (numbers in square brackets) are placed in the text before punctuation.
Include only articles that are part of the scientific published record.
DO NOT include
- websites - URL to be included in the main text only
- unpublished works. Any submitted papers should be listed as “unpublished data” in brackets in the main text ))

((Journals should be cited as follows: number in square brackets, all author initials then surnames (not "et al."), comma, abbreviated journal name (italicized), year of publication (boldface), comma, volume number (italicized), comma, first page, full stop. See below and the manuscript templates for examples:))
[1] ((Journal articles)) a) A. B. Author 1, C. D. Author 2, Adv. Mater. 2006, 18, 1; b) A. Author 1, B. Author 2, Adv. Funct. Mater. 2006, 16, 1.
[2] ((Work accepted)) A. B. Author 1, C. D. Author 2, Macromol. Rapid Commun., DOI: 10.1002/marc.#########.
[3] ((Books)) H. R. Allcock, Introduction to Materials Chemistry, Wiley, Hoboken, NJ, USA 2008.

[5] ((Thesis)) Author, Degree Thesis, University (location if not obvious), Month, Year.

    If you are creating this yourself you'll need to be more specific where you are running into problems and where you need help.
    You can always share code via PasteBin and share the link here and we give you instructions.

    General instructions you'll have seen, I guess, but just in case: https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/citation_styles/style_editing_step-by-step
