clear structure to contain Introduction, Material and Methods, Results,

2.2. Article Structure

2.2.1. Title Page

Title.

Concise and informative. Titles are often used in information-retrieval

systems. Avoid abbreviations and formulae where possible.

Author

names and affiliations. Please clearly indicate the given name(s) and

family name(s) of each author and check that all names are accurately

spelled. You can add your name between parentheses in your own script

behind the English transliteration. Present the authors' affiliation

addresses (where the actual work was done) below the names. Indicate all

affiliations with a lower-case superscript letter immediately after the

author's name and in front of the appropriate address. Provide the full

postal address of each affiliation, including the country name and, if

available, the e-mail address of each author.

Corresponding

author. Clearly indicate who will handle correspondence at all stages

of refereeing and publication, also post-publication. This

responsibility includes answering any future queries about Methodology

and Materials. Ensure that the e-mail address is given and that contact

details are kept up to date by the corresponding author.

Present/permanent

address. If an author has moved since the work described in the article

was done, or was visiting at the time, a "Present address" (or

"Permanent address") may be indicated as a footnote to that author's

name. The address at which the author actually did the work must be

retained as the main, affiliation address. Superscript Arabic numerals

are used for such footnotes.

Publication history. The submission date, revised date, and accepted date will be included in this part.

Abstract.

A concise and structured abstract is required. The abstract should

state briefly the purpose of the research, the main methods or

treatments applied, the principal results and major conclusions. The

abstract should be an objective representation of the article and it

must not contain results that are not presented and substantiated in the

main text and should not exaggerate the main conclusions. An abstract

is often presented separately from the article, so it must be able to

stand alone. For this reason, References should be avoided. Also,

non-standard or uncommon abbreviations should be avoided, but if

essential they must be defined at their first mention in the abstract

itself. A single paragraph of about 200 words maximum.

Graphical

abstract. The graphical abstract is optional, but it draws more

attention to the online article. The graphical abstract should summarize

the contents of the article in a concise, pictorial form designed to

capture the attention of a wide readership. Graphical abstract should be

submitted as a separate file in the online submission system. Image

size: Please provide an image with a minimum of 374 × 990 pixels (h × w)

and high resolution of 300 dpi. Preferred file types: TIFF, PNG or MS

Office files.

Keywords. provide a maximum of 8 keywords, avoiding general and plural terms and multiple concepts.

Copyright.

Authors retain copyright of their works through Creative Commons CC BY

4.0 license that clearly states how readers can copy, distribute, and

use their attributed research, free of charge. A declaration "©The

Author(s) Year." will be added to each article.

2.2.2. Main text

Introduction.

State the objectives of the work and provide an adequate background,

avoiding a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results.

Material

and Methods. Provide sufficient details to allow the work to be

reproduced by an independent researcher. Methods that are already

published should be summarized, and indicated by a reference. If quoting

directly from a previously published method, use quotation marks and

also cite the source. Any modifications to existing methods should also

be described.

Results.

Results should be clear and concise. Each Figure, Table, Scheme and

supplementary information with a short and concise caption should be

inserted into the main text close to their first citation and must be

numbered following their number of appearance (Figure 1, Scheme I, Table

1, etc.).

Discussion.

This should explore the significance of the results of the work, not

repeat them. A combined Results and Discussion section is often

appropriate. Avoid extensive citations and discussion of published

literature.

Conclusions.

The main conclusions of the study may be presented in a short

Conclusions section, which may stand alone or form a subsection of a

Discussion or Results and Discussion section.
