Author Guidelines

Title

The title should be concise, informative, and accurately reflect the content of the manuscript. Avoid abbreviations, formulas, and unnecessary words whenever possible.

Authors and Affiliations

Provide the full names of all authors, together with their institutional affiliations, postal addresses, and e-mail addresses. Clearly identify the corresponding author and provide a valid e-mail address for correspondence.

Abstract

Provide a concise and factual abstract of no more than 250 words. The abstract should briefly describe the objective of the study, the methods employed, the principal findings, and the main conclusions. Since the abstract may be published separately from the article, it should not contain references, undefined abbreviations, or detailed discussion.

Keywords

Provide three to five keywords immediately after the abstract. Keywords should accurately represent the main topics of the manuscript and should not simply repeat words used in the title.

Introduction

The introduction should present the background of the study, summarize relevant literature, identify the research gap, and clearly state the objectives of the work. A detailed literature review should be avoided.

Materials and Methods

Describe the materials, experimental procedures, analytical methods, and statistical analyses in sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced. Previously published methods should be appropriately cited, and only essential modifications should be described in detail.

Results and Discussion

Present the results clearly and logically using text, tables, and figures where appropriate. The discussion should interpret the significance of the findings rather than simply repeat the results. Comparisons with previously published studies should be included where relevant.

Conclusions

Summarize the principal findings and their scientific significance. Conclusions should be directly supported by the results presented in the manuscript and should avoid repeating information from the abstract.

Acknowledgements

Acknowledgements should appear in a separate section before the References. Recognize individuals, institutions, and funding organizations that contributed to the work but do not meet the criteria for authorship.

Conflict of Interest

Authors must declare any financial or personal relationships that could influence the work. If there are no conflicts of interest, state: "The authors declare no conflict of interest."

References

Ensure that all references cited in the text are included in the reference list, and that all references listed are cited in the text. References should be prepared according to the latest edition of the American Chemical Society (ACS) Style Guide. References should be cited in the text using consecutive Arabic numerals in square brackets (e.g., [1], [2]) and listed in numerical order according to their first citation. Authors are responsible for ensuring the accuracy, completeness, and consistency of all references.

Tables

Tables should be prepared as editable text rather than images. Number tables consecutively according to their order of appearance in the text. Each table should have a concise title, and explanatory notes should be placed below the table when necessary.

Figures

Figures should be of high quality and submitted both within the manuscript and as separate files in their original formats (TIFF, EPS, JPEG, or PNG; minimum resolution 300 dpi). Figures should be numbered consecutively and cited in the text. All symbols, abbreviations, and error bars should be explained either in the figure or caption.

Figure Captions

Provide a separate caption for each figure. Captions should include a brief title and sufficient explanation to enable the figure to be understood without referring extensively to the main text.

Proofs

The corresponding author will receive page proofs for final checking before publication. Proofs should be reviewed carefully and returned promptly. Only typographical or minor editorial corrections are permitted at this stage.

Submission Preparation Checklist

All submissions must meet the following requirements.

  • The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
