ABSTRACT

The ABSTRACT should be concise and factual and written in a single paragraph. It should state briefly the purpose of the research the principal results and major conclusions. The maximum number of words in the abstract should be 250-300 words.

Keywords: A maximum of 5 to 7 specific keywords is required

INTRODUCTION

State the objectives of the work and provide an adequate background, avoiding a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

The materials and methods section should include the design of the study, the type of materials involved, a clear description of all comparisons, and should be concise but sufficient for repetition by other qualified investigators. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference: only relevant modifications should be described.

RESULTS

Results should be clear and concise.

1-Tables

Authors should use tables only to achieve concise presentation or where the information cannot be given satisfactorily in other ways. Tables should be numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals and should be in the text itself at an appropriate place not at the end or as a separate attachment. Each table should have an explanatory caption which should be as concise as possible. Also, tables should be cited upon first appearance in the main text.

2-Figures & Figure Legends

Authors are encouraged to use line diagrams and photographs to enhance their text. Figures should be clear, legible, and of high quality. The styles and fonts used must be consistent with those in the main body of the article. Lettering and lines should have uniform density and remain unbroken. Axis labels should be in bold, and units must be indicated next to variables in parentheses. All figures should be placed within the text at appropriate locations, rather than at the end or as separate attachments. Figure legends should be positioned below each figure. Additionally, each figure must be labeled with Arabic numerals and the abbreviation "Fig." (e.g., Fig. 1, Fig. 2), and these labels should also be referenced in the main text.

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 should be presented in this section.

REFERENCES

The references section must include all relevant published works and all listed references.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

All contributors who do not meet the criteria for authorship as defined above should be listed in an acknowledgements section. Examples of those who might be acknowledged include a person who provided purely technical help, or writing assistance, or a department chair who provided only general support.
