Paper Template

Title and authors:

The title of the paper should be specific in describing the topic of study. The names of the authors should follow the title and an asterisk must mark the name of main author. The names of the authors should be followed by-their occupational addresses, preferably with contact phone numbers and/or valid e-mail address.

Abstract:

An abstract is summary of the entire paper. It should briefly describe the question posed in the paper, the methods used to answer this question the results obtained, and the conclusions. It should be possible to determine the major points of the paper by reading the abstract.

Keywords:

Introduction:

It should describe the subject of the paper and its importance.

Materials and methods:

This section should succinctly describe what was actually done. It should include description of the techniques used so someone could figure out what experiments were actually done.

Results:

Each paragraph should begin with an opening sentence explaining the question tested. Any results that include multiple data points that are critical for the reader to evaluate the experiment should be shown in tables or figures. However, the results should be summarized in accompanying text. When referring to a particular table or figure, they should be capitalized. The text of the results section should be succinct but should provide the reader with a summary of the results of each table or figure. If there are only a few numerical results or a simple conclusion the results should be described in the text instead of a table or figure.

Tables and figures:

All tables and figures should be put into a contextual framework in the corresponding text. Tables and figures would present information in a formal that is easily evaluated by the reader. It should be possible to figure out the meaning of a table or figure without referring to the text. Tables and figures should typically summarize results, not present large amounts of raw data. When possible, the results should provide some way of evaluating the reproducibility or statistical significance of any numbers presented.

Tables should be sequentially numbered. Each table should have a title that describes the point of the table. If necessary to interpret the table, specific descriptions about what a result represents or how the results were obtained can be described in a foot note below the table.

Figures should be sequentially numbered. Each figure should have a title. If necessary to interpret the figure, specific descriptions about what a result represents or how the results were obtained can be described immediately following the title.

Tables and figures may be printed on separate pages that follow the reference section. Alternatively, the tables and figures may be integrated into the paper make sure that there is not a page break in the middle of a table or figure. Do not wrap text around the outside of tables and figures – if the results are important enough to show as a table or figure they should stand out on the page, not be buried in text.

Discussion / Conclusion :

Explain your interpretations and conclusions of the results section. How did your results compare with the related reported data? What further predictions can be gleaned from the results?

Citing references:

It is essential to credit published papers for work mentioned in your manuscript. References to literature should be numbered consecutively, following the same sequence in the text and the list appended at the end, and should be indicated in the text by numbers placed in superior position i.e. superscript.

In citing references to research papers, names and initials of authors should be followed, in order by the year (within circular bracket),the full title of the paper, the abbreviated title of the periodical/journal (italicized), the volume number, and the first page reference. Use standard abbreviations (hr, min, sec, etc.) instead of writing complete words. Define the abbreviations the first time they are used, and then subsequently use the abbreviation.
