All materials must be written in proper
and clear English. The manuscript, prepared according to "Uniform
Requirements for Manuscripts submitted to the J Vet Sci ", is not
returned to the corresponding author because of the incorrectness of the
format.
The manuscript including tables and
their footnotes, and figures legends, must be typed in double space on A4
size (21 x 28 cm) white paper, with a margin of at least 2.5cm on every
side. Materials should be prepared with a letter quality printer using
ragged right margin and standard 12 point font. Good quality photocopies
are acceptable. The manuscript should be in the following sequence:
checklist, copyright assignment, cover letter, title page, abstract and
key words, introduction, materials and methods, results, discussion,
acknowledgment, references, tables, and figure legends. The title page,
abstract, references, each table and figure legend should start with a
new page. All pages should be numbered consecutively starting from the
title page. All tables and figures are to be numbered consecutively using
Arabic numerals. Their approximate positions should be indicated in the
appropriate margin of the typescript. The average size of original
articles is around six printed pages including table(s), figure(s) and
references (typescripts: 65 letters 25 lines, typewritten 14 pages). A
short communication and case reports are three printed
pages(double-spaced, typewritten 8 pages) including the figure(s) and
table(s), and there is no size limitation for reviews.
Cover letter: The
corresponding author must give written assurance that neither the
submitted materials nor portions therefore have been published previously
or are under consideration for publication elsewhere. When more than one
related manuscript has been published or is under consideration for publication
by this or other journals, authors are required to declare this in their
letter and to enclose copies of those publications for an editorial
perusal. Failure to do so may lead to automatic rejection of the
submitted manuscript.
The corresponding author should certify that all listed authors
participated meaningfully in the study and that they have seen and
approved the final manuscript.
Title page: This
should be contain the title of an article, full names of author(s) and
institutional affiliation(s). If several authors, and institutions are
listed, they should be clearly indicated with which department and
institution each author is affiliated. In separate paragraph, address for
correspondence, including the name of corresponding author, degree, address(institutional
affiliation, city, zip-code and country), telephone and fax number, and
e-mail address, should be given. Information concerning sources of
financial support should be placed as a footnote. A running title, less
than ten words, should not be declarative or interrogative sentences.
1. Title:
Titles should be brief but informative. It is important for literature
retrieval to include the key words in the title which are necessary to
identify the nature of the subject matter, including the species of the
animal on which the work is done. Use of expressions such as
"Studies on .......... " "Observation of ........."
or "Effects of ......." should be avoided, since they are not
sufficiently informative. Chemical formulas or abbreviations should be
used. Titles in the form of declarative or interrogative sentences are
not encouraged. Also, do not use Roman or Arabic numerals to designate
that the paper is one in a series.
2. Authors and Affiliation:
Authors are urged to include their full names, complete with first and
middle names or initials. Confusion often arises in the literature when
authors are identified by surname and initials only. Authors' academic
degrees should not be included. The full name of institutions and
subsidiary departments should be given, together with a useful address
including postal code. If several authors and institutions are listed on
a paper, it should be clearly indicated with which department and
institution each author is affiliated. The affiliation address in each
case should be indicated by superscript.
Author's academic degrees should not be included.
3. Running title: A
brief running title should be provided, not to exceed ten words. If
running title is declarative or interrogative sentences, it is not
acceptable.
4. Abstracts:
Abstract should be concise less than 250 words and describe, in a
paragraph, concisely purpose, methods, important results and describe
conclusion of the study, but not repeat information already presented in
the title. It should be suitable for direct inclusion in Index
Medicus/Medline and CAB/ Index Veterinarius. Authors may wish to remember
that "Medline", a computerized monthly bibliography prepared by
the National Library of Medicine (NIH/NLM), includes only those abstracts
that contain less than 250 words. Longer abstracts are not accessible
through the Medline service. Short communication must also be submitted
with an abstract.
5. Key word: This
is a list important terms relevant to the content of paper. Up to 5 key
words should be listed at the bottom of abstract to be used as index
terms. For the selection of key words, please refer Medical Subject
Heading(MeSH) in Index Medicus/Medline, or in Website, www.nlm.nih.gov/
mesh /Browser .html
6. Introduction: This
is a brief background. It is not necessary to include all of the
background literature .Brief reference to the most pertinent generally is
enough to inform readers with findings of others in the field. The
specific questions to be addressed the study should also described. It should
not contain either authors' result and conclusion.
7. Materials and Methods:
Experimentation of the experimental methods should be concise but
sufficient for repetition by other qualified investigators. Procedures
that have been published previously should not be described in detail,
but merely cited with appropriate references. However, new or significant
modifications of previously published procedures need full descriptions.
The sources of special chemicals or preparations should be given along with
their location(company name and country). All chemicals and regents
should be used a generic name but not brand name. For animal
experimentation reported in this Journal, it is expected that the "Guide for the care and use of
laboratory animals" approved by the National Research
Council(ILAR) in USA
will have been observed. We encourage that the
ethical guidelines of animal welfare committee should be cited.
8. Results: This
part should be included a concise textual description of the data
presented in tables and figures. Repetition of the same data in different
forms should be avoided. The results should not included materials
appropriate to the discussion.
9. Discussion: In
this section, the data should be interpreted concisely without repeating
material already presented in the results section. It should be
considered the results in relation to any hypotheses advanced in the
introduction. This may include an evaluation of the methodology and of
the relationship of new information to the knowledge in that field.
10. Acknowledgments: All
person who have made a genuine contribution and who endorse the data and
conclusions may be included. Authors are responsible for obtaining
written permission to use any copyrighted text and/or illustration.
11. References: The
references section must include all relevant published works, and all
listed references must be cited in the text. Arrange the references
section in alphabetical order, by the first author’s surname, and
number the entries consecutively. And the cited references in the text
should be cited by their list number. Journal name should be abbreviated
in accordance with the style of Index Medicus/Medline (www.nlm.nih.gov/tsd/serials/lji.html).
Cite each listed reference in the text by number in brackets. Follow the
styles shown in the example below:

The following types of references are
not valid for listing: unpublished data, personal communication,
manuscripts in preparation or submitted, pamphlets, abstracts, patents,
newsletters, website and material that has not been subjected to peer
review.
Table and Figures
Tables should be typewritten separately from the not text, double spaced,
and each table should include a title. Vertical rulings in tables are
unacceptable. Figures should ordinarily be original drawings. However,
glossy photographs of line-drawing are usually satisfactory. In each
original line-drawing, letters or numbers should be left blank because
they will be typed in during printing. Letters or numbers should be included
in the figures contained in a submitted manuscript along with caption for
figures. Authors should place explanatory matter in footnotes, not in the
heading. Explain in footnotes all nonstandard abbreviations that are used
in each table. For footnotes use the following symbols, in sequence:
*,†,‡,§,||,¶,**,††, ‡‡ .
Draw each curve with a different kind of line (solid, dashed, dotted) or with a different symbol for the plotted points dot, triangle and square in oder of . Diagrams and photographs should be in digital format, such as TIFF, JEPG or PPT, final resolution 300 dpi for halftones, 1200 dpi for black/white line graphs, and 600 dpi for combination halftones containing pictures and labelling and/or lines. All kinds of figures may be reduced, enlarged or trimmed for publication by the Editor. The figure numbers should be appeared directly at the lower left corner. And then symbols, arrows, or letters used in photographs could be possible to rearrange for journal format.
Nomenclatures, Unit, and Abbreviations Nomenclatures for chemicals and biochemicals, microorganism, and genes should follow the guidelines in the instructions to authors of journals published by American Society for Microbiology. SI units (System International Unites) should be used whenever possible. Abbreviations should be used for those recommended by IUPA-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature and Related Documents. In addition to abbreviation to SI unit, other common abbreviations may be used without definition in Table. (the same abbreviations are used for plural forms): year(s) = yr, month(s) = mo, day(s) = d, week(s) = wk, hour(s) = h, minute(s) = min, second(s) = sec, liter(s) = l, mililiter(s) = ml, meter(s) = m, centimeter(s) = cm, gram(s) = g, miligram(s) = mg, microliter(s) = µl, micrometer(s) = µm, micron(s) = µm, standard deviation = SD, standard error = SE, molar = M, mole = mol.
12. Research and publication ethics: For the policies on the research and publication ethics not stated in this instructions, 'Good Publication Practice Guidelines for Medical Journals (http://kamje.or.kr/publishing_ethics.html)', 'Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals: Writing and Editing for Biomedical Publication (www.icmje.org)' or 'Guidelines on good publication (www.publicationethics.org.uk/ guidelines)' can be applied.
