ABSTRACT
Begin the heading of the abstract two lines below the authors and affiliation section: The
word ABSTRACT is printed in Times New Roman, 14 pts bold capital letters. Title will
implies the core of the manuscript. Abstract covers of brief background, objective,
methodology, results and discussions, conclusion with a maximum of 300 words. The
abstract should summarize the pertinent results in a brief but understandable form. Contents
of abstract should be in line with title, objective, methodology, result and conclusion that
describe essential of the manuscript. The abstract should start with a clear statement of the
objective of the experiment and must conclude with one or two sentences that highlight
important conclusions. Times New Roman 12 pts.
Keywords: maximum 5 words, Times New Roman, 12 pts
INTRODUCTION
The introduction briefly justifies the research and specifies the hypotheses to be tested.
Extensive discussion of relevant literature should be included in the discussion of results, not
in the introduction. To minimize length and avoid redundancy, generally no more than three
references should be cited o support a specific concept.
Major headings (INTRODUCTION, MATERIALS AND METHODS, RESULTS,
DISCUSSION [or RESULT AND DISCUSSION], and REFERENCES) are centered with
the entire heading capitalized using bold-faced type. The first subheadings appear at the left
margin on a separate line in bold-faced print and are not followed by punctuation. Only the
first word is capitalized. The subheadings are not numbered and left justified.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A clear description or specific original reference is required for all biological, analytical, and
statistical procedures used in the experiment. All of the modifications of procedures must be
explained. Raw materials (scientific name, variety, production year, harvesting period and
location), diets, laboratory animas (breed, sex, age, body weight, and weighing condition),
surgical techniques, measurements, and statistical models should be described clearly and
fully.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The result (may be combined with discussion) should be presented in tabular form when
feasible. The text should explain or elaborate on the tabular data, but numbers should not be
repeated extensively within the text. Sufficient data, all with some index of variation attached,
should be presented to allow the reader to interpret the results of the experiment.
The discussion (may be combined with results) should interpret the results clearly and
concisely. Results and references to the tables and figures already described in the RESULTS
section should not be repeated in the DISCUSSION section.
Tables: are used to present numerical data in a self-explanatory manner. They should be
intelligible without consulting the text and should not duplicate the data already given in the
text or in the illustrations.
Figures: Please use good quality figures (pictures, graphs) in the paper, color ones as well.
The size will not be shrunk during the printing. Please, keep in mind that only the electronic
(CD-Rom) publication will be in color (color pictures can be seen there), but the printed
version will be grey-scale, so do not use color coding. Figures should be sharp and well
readable in the printed proceedings.
All of the tables and figures should be cited in the text. Arabic numerals are used to number
tables and figures. The table or figure number (i.e. Table 4. Or Figure 4.) is typed in bold face
followed by a period. The title of the table or figure continues on the same line with only the
first letter capitalized. Do not use a period at the end of the title.The column headings should
have the first letter of each word capitalized while the same names of variables are typed with
only the first letter capitalized (i.e. Table 1. Title of the table or Figure 1. Title of the figure).
For numerals less than 1, insert a zero to the left of the decimal point (columns should be set
up so that decimal points are aligned if possible). If there are no data for a particular entry,
insert a dash. If an explanation is necessary, use an abbreviation in the body of the table (e.g.
ND) and explain clearly in footnotes what the abbreviation means. Care should be taken to
ensure that greater accuracy is not implied in the table than is possible from a particular
analysis and only significant figures should be used. It is exceedingly rare where accuracy
greater than two decimal places are obtained.
References to footnotes in a table are specified by superscript numbers, independently for
each table. Superscript letters are used to designate statistical significance. Use a lower case p
to indicate probability values (i.e. p<0.05).
Presentation of pooled standard errors, the general basis for statistical comparisons of means
is recommended when variance is homogeneous. These should be presented in a separate
column or row. Standard errors can be attached to each mean by ± signs when variance or
SE is heterogeneous (e.g. unbalanced experiments or unequal numbers of observations in
treatment means). The pooled standard error is the preferred estimate of the experimental
error because presenting individual standard errors tends to clutter up the table.
Arabic numerals are used to number tables. The table number (i.e. Table 4.) is typed in bold
face followed by a period.

Use of numbers: Follow the rules given below for writing numbers.
In general, spell out numbers one through nine and use numerals for 10 and above. Use
Arabic numerals with abbreviated units of measure: 2 g, 5 d, $4.00, 3% and numerical
designations in the text: exp 1, group 3, etc. Use Arabic numerals to express time and date:
08:00 hours, 3 Sept. 1985, etc.
In a series using some numbers less than 10 and some more than 10 use numerals for all.
When writing a large number ending in several zeros, use a word for part of the number (i.e.
1.8 million rather than 1,800,000). When two numbers appear adjacent to each other, spell
out the first (i.e. ten 2-d old rather than 10 2-d old). Do not begin a sentence with a numeral.
Spell it out or rearrange the sentence. Use the 24-h clock system: 09:30, 13:40 h, etc. Give
day length in quantitative hours (e.g. 2 h 16 min). Abbreviate the terms hour (h), minute
(min), second (s) and year (yr) when used with a number in the text but spell them out when
they are used alone. Do not use a hyphen to indicate inclusiveness (e.g. use 12 to 14 mg or 3
and 4 not 12-14 mg or 3-4).

CONCLUSION
This section should represent the summary of the important findings. Conclusions are not an
extension of the discussion or a summary of the results without abbreviations, acronyms, or
citations.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
List here those individuals who provided help during the research (e.g., providing research
grants, providing research facilities, providing language help, writing assistance or proof
reading the article, etc.).
REFERENCES
References to other publications must be in Harvard style and carefully checked for
completeness, accuracy and consistency. This is very important in an electronic environment
because it enables your readers to exploit the Reference Linking facility on the database and
link back to the works you have cited through CrossRef.
You should cite publications in the text: (Adams, 2006) using the first named author's name
or (Adams and Brown, 2006) citing both names of two, or (Adams et al., 2006), when there
