Title: On the first page, papers should be headed by a concise and informative title. The title should be followed by the author's full first names, middle initials and last names and by names and addresses of laboratories where the work was carried out. Identify the affiliations of all authors and their institutions, departments or organizations by use of Arabic numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.).

Footnotes: The name and full postal address, telephone, fax and E-mail number of the corresponding author should be provided in a footnote.

Abbreviations: The Journal publishes a standard abbreviation list at the front of every issue. These standard abbreviations do not need to be spelt  out on paper. However, non-standard and undefined abbreviations used five or more times should be listed in the footnote. Abbreviations should be defined where first mentioned in the text. Do not use abbreviations in the title or the Abstract. However, they can be used in Figures and Tables with explanations in the Figure legend or  a footnote to the Table.

Abstract: On the second page, the abstract should follow the title (no authors’ name) in a structured format of not more than 250 words must be able to stand independently and should state the Background, Methods, Results, and Conclusion. Write the abstract in the third person. References should not be cited and abbreviations should be avoided.

Keywords: A list of three to five keywords for indexing should be included at the bottom of the abstract. The introduction should contain a description of the problem under investigation and a brief survey of the existing literature on the subject.

Materials and Methods: Sufficient details must be provided to allow the work to be repeated. Correct chemical names should be given and strains of organisms should be specified. Suppliers of materials need only be mentioned if this may affect the results. Use System International (SI) units and symbols.

Results: This section should describe concisely the rationale of the investigation and its outcomes. Data should not be repeated in both a Table and a Figure. Tables and Figures should be selected to illustrate specific points. Do not tabulate or illustrate points that can be adequately and concisely described in the text.

Discussion: This should not simply recapitulate the Results. It should relate results to previous work and interpret them. Combined Results and Discussion sections are encouraged when appropriate.

Acknowledgements: This optional part should include a statement thanking those who assisted substantially with work relevant to the study. Grant support should be included in this section.

References: References should be written in alphabetical order. Only published, "in press" papers, and books may be cited in the reference list (see the examples below).

Abstracts of papers presented at meetings are not permissible. These references should appear as parenthetical expressions in the text, e.g. (unpublished data). A few examples of referencing patterns are given as follows:
