Introduction
The introduction should provide a clear statement of the problem presented in the paper, the citation of relevant literature and the study objectives. The introduction should be understandable to colleagues from a broad range of scientific domains.
Materials and methods (for experimental works, case studies etc.)
Materials and methods should be complete enough to allow experiments / case studies to be reproduced. Trade names and manufacturer’s name have to be indicated. Known methods have only to be mentioned and sources cited. Also, only genuinely new procedures designed by authors and important changes should be shortly described and/or presented. When values are used, the metric units and the International System of measurement units have to be followed.
Results and discussion
The results have to be presented clearly and precisely. They should be written in the past tense and the previously published data should be written in the present tense following the right citations. The results should be explained, analysed and discussed to allow the partial and final conclusions statement.
The Results and discussion chapter may include subheadings, named and numbered accordingly.
Conclusions
The conclusions should be stated in few sentences at the end of the paper. It is recommended that they should not be a reproduction of the abstract’s final part.
Acknowledgements
The financial support of the research/study – programme, grant, fellowship – should be indicated.
Acknowledgements should be addressed (if it is the case) to significant contributors, but not authors, to a laboratory / institution which allowed the experiments etc.
Tables
The tables should be introduced after the fist citation. Their use should be kept to minimum and be designed as simple as possible, edited in Word directly into the paper, not imported from elsewhere.
The tables should be numbered with Arabic numerals. The number should be followed by a brief description of the content, no more than two lines, at the head of the table. Each column should have a heading and the corresponding measurement unit. Supplementary descriptions should be added at the bottom of the table, if necessary.
Figures
The figures should be introduced after the fist citation. It is recommended to use the same font as in the paper for figures editing. The figures have to be clear, and the points presenting the data should be well emphasized.

The figures should be numbered with Arabic numerals, followed by a short description, both below the figure. They should be accompanied by a legend with explanations (point’s symbols, series symbols etc.).
Unsatisfactory figures will be returned to authors for revision.
