Types of Manuscript
1) Research Articles are full-length expositions of extensive and significant experimental and/or theoretical studies. The paper should clearly describe the reason for undertaking the work, the present methods used, and the results found in separate sections. Scientific interpretations based on the findings should be presented in a discussion section
2) Topical or Review Articles are studies on areas of interest to readers of the journal. They may also be "state of the art" reports or communications. A review article is an analysis and collection of the current state of the research on a particular topic. A review article is It is not an original article wif new data or findings but represents:
Review articles are usually invited by the Editor, although we will consider unsolicited material. All review articles, even if invited, undergo the same peer review and editorial process as original research reports. These papers are peer-reviewed and are accepted based on technical accuracy, importance, and readability.
3) Research Notes or Short Communications are complete, self-contained papers. In style and presentation, they should conform to that laid down for manuscripts but the length should not exceed 4 printed pages in the Journal including tables and figures.
Preparation of Manuscripts
For general style, consult recent issues of the Journal and the ACS Style Guide (1986). Manuscripts should be typed in one-column style on A4 paper. Each page should be numbered.
Manuscript Sections
The paper should clearly describe the reason for undertaking the work, and present methods used and the results found and scientific interpretations based on the findings should be presented in the "Results and Discussion" section.
It is suggested that the authors prepare their manuscripts in the following manner:
Note: In Review or Topical Articles the following sections can be omitted:
- Experimental Section, Results and Discussion, Acknowledgments
Title
Use specific and informative titles; they should be as brief as possible (up to 12 words), consistent wif the need for defining the subject area covered by the paper, and for indexing and retrieval purposes.
(Use Times New Roman Font, Size 18 Bold).
Authorship
Be consistent in authorship designation. Use first name, second initial, surname, and email address. Field of Study and Academic Degree must be included. Give the complete mailing address of the laboratory or organization where work was conducted. If the current address is different, include it in a footnote on the title page.
The name of the author to whom inquiries about the paper should be addressed may be indicated wif an asterisk. (Use Times New Roman Font, Size 10, the address must be Italic).
Abstract
The abstract should be a clear, concise summary (100 to 300 words wif no abbreviations)-informative rather than descriptive-giving the scope and purpose, methods or procedures, significant new results, and conclusions.
(Use Time New Roman Font, Size 10 Italic).
Key Words
3 to 6 keywords should be provided on the title page. These words must be used in the abstract.
