The Journal will publish original research articles, review articles and short communications and letters to the editor.

All submitted articles are subjected to an extensive review by the editorial board and by a panel of referees.

Manuscript Submission:

It is recommended to deliver three copies of the manuscript including figures and tables in heavy-paper envelope with adequate protection.

Text:

The text should be divided into the following headings: introduction, experimental including materials and methods, results and / or discussion, conclusion, acknowledgment , references Arabic abstract.

1- Introduction

Should not state the summary of literature review, but to introduce the purpose of the work in relation to previous related publications.

2-Experimental

Materials used in the work must be written in full details including their specifications, and source of manufacture. When animals use, the description of type, age, weight and housing source should be included.

Procedures should be described in sufficient detail to permit others to repeat and reproduce the results of the work. Sources of commercial products need not be listed unless unique. Published methods need not be restated but must be referenced.

3-Results

Tables and Figures that summarize the results and improve their comprehension are encouraged, but only if the space required is not excessive and less than can be stated in the text.

The number of tables and Figures will generally be restricted to 4 and 4 in number, respectively. The reproducibility and statistical significance of measurements, material or biological, must be included when relevant.

4-Discussion

This section should deal with the interpretation of the results and their significance to the field of study. Repetition of information presented in other sections should be avoided, as should general reviews of the literature. In some cases, it may be advantageous to combine the Results and Discussion sections.

5-Conclusion

Should be a short, one paragraph illustrating the summary of the most important finding (s) of the research.

Acknowledgment

Persons who have contributed to the paper and sources of support; whether finance or with the raw materials can be acknowledged.

Tables

Tables are typed in double spaced on a separate sheet, including number table (in Arabic numbers) and heading. Statistical measures as mean ± SD and ± SE must be listed for each experiment. The units of results for all data in each column should be placed in parenthesis under the column heading.

Figures

Figures should be scaled to fit column width (75mm), Photographs must be in color, glossy and sharp. Each figure should be numbered according to the order in which they are first cited in the text.

References

References are listed in the order in which they are cited in the text identified by Arabic numbers in parenthesis.
