- Manuscripts should be typed, double-spaced, and fully corrected. Allow a margin at least 3 cm at the top, bottom and left side of the page. Text should not be justified, but flush left.
- The first page of each paper should indicate: the author's name, title of the paper, the institute where the work was conducted (not in capital letters); complete name and address for correspondence with telephone and fax numbers, and e-mail address if available; running head not exceed 40 characters including space.
- The second page should contain only the title and running head. This page will serve as the cover when the manuscript is sent to referees.
- The third page contains the abstract which should not exceed one type-written page. Every abstract should be written in an informative style. Avoid generalizations and give essential details of research findings. For indexing purposes, a list of 3–10 key words in English and not included in the title should be typed below the abstract.
- The textual material of the article should be organized in a standard form with separate: Introduction, Material and Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusions, and References. Review articles should be divided into sections and subsections as appropriate without numbering. The desired position of figures and tables should be indicated in the margin.
- Do not underline in the text. Avoid footnotes. When essential, they are numbered consecutively and typed at the foot of the appropriate page.
- All dimensions and measurements must be specified in the metric system.
- The source of any drug and special reagent should be identified.
- Particular attention needs to be paid to the selection of appropriate analysis of data and the results of statistical test should be incorporated in the results section.

If the Publisher receives no response from the authors after 48 hours, it will be assumed that there are no errors to correct and the article will be published.
