Instructions to Authors
Introduction
'International Archives of Allergy and Immunology' appears monthly and provides a forum for publication of work from all aspects of modern allergology and immunology. Papers considered of special interest will be treated as 'hot topics' and every attempt will be made to publish these especially fast.
The Editor-in-Chief, the Managing Editor and a team of internationally established Associate Editors competently covering all fields of allergology and immunology are responsible for the scientific quality of this international core journal.
'International Archives of Allergy and Immunology' publishes original work in the fields of allergy, immunopathology and transplantation, cellular immunology, immunogenetics, immunopharmacology and immunoendocrinology, mucosal immunity, immunology of infectious diseases and immunology of connective tissue diseases. In addition, reviews, minireviews, commentaries and opinions on controversial subjects are published regularly.
A new system of manuscript submission, reviewing and processing guarantees competent and fair reviewing as well as fast and high quality publication.

Types of Papers
Original research papers: Submitted manuscripts should be fully documented reports of original research. They must describe significant and original observations to be critically evaluated and, if necessary, repeated.
Short communications: These manuscripts should not contain more than 2 printed pages (i.e. 5 manuscript pages), including an abstract, essential references and not more than 3 tables or figures. Such communications should represent complete, original studies and should be arranged in the same way as full length manuscripts.
Novel Insights from Clinical Practice (formerly Case Reports): the publication space available for case reports is very limited. The journal only considers case reports with significant new insights or with an extremely unusual and memorable course. Highlighted boxes containing one or two bullet points on 'Established facts' (what is already known) and 'Novel insights' (what new information has been gained) are required and should be placed on the first page of the report. These should be selected so as to reinforce the novelty of the clinical observation.
Example
Established Facts
· Already known fact 1 ...
· Already known fact 2 ...
Novel Insights
· New information 1 ...
· New information 2 ...
The manuscript should be presented with an abstract (unstructured, max. 200 words), followed by introduction, case report and discussion. Maximum 3 figures.
Review articles, minireviews and commentaries: Authors, who wish to contribute a manuscript to one of these categories should contact the Editor-in-Chief. Minireviews should be focused, brief reports on topics of current interest. Commentaries should offer a more personalized perspective on a topic that will be of interest to the general readership. All contributions to these categories will be subject to Editorial review.
Letters to the Editor concerning work published in the journal may be submitted. They should not exceed 2 manuscript pages including one table or figure.
Conditions
All manuscripts are subject to editorial review. Manuscripts are received with the explicit understanding that they are not under simultaneous consideration by any other publication.
A cover letter with the name, address, and telephone and telefax numbers of the corresponding author must accompany each manuscript. This letter must include a statement that affirms that all authors concur with the submission.
Submission of an article for publication implies the transfer of the copyright from the author to the publisher upon acceptance. Accepted papers become the permanent property of 'International Archives of Allergy and Immunology' and may not be reproduced by any means, in whole or in part, without the written consent of the publisher.
It is the author's responsibility to obtain permission to reproduce illustrations, tables, etc. from other publications.
One of the criteria considered in reviewing manuscripts is the proper treatment of animals. In particular, the use of painful or otherwise noxious stimuli must be carefully and thoroughly justified. Papers that do not meet these criteria will not be accepted for publication.
Arrangement
Manuscripts should be written in English and be as concise as possible.
Be sure to display line numbers (1, 2, 3, and so forth) in the left margin of the manuscript (line numbering can be added from the Page Setup or Format menu of word processing programs). The line numbering should be continuous throughout the entire manuscript, from the title page through to the final page (i.e., do not begin numbering from 1 again at the top of each page).
Title page: The first page of each paper should indicate the title, the authors’ names, the institute where the work was conducted, and a short title for use as running head.NB: Authors wishing to preserve the phonetic meaning of diacritics (PubMed reduces diacritics to their root characters) must spell their names accordingly when submitting manuscripts (e.g. Müller should be Mueller).
Full address: The exact postal address of the corresponding author complete with postal code must be given at the bottom of the title page. Please also supply phone and fax numbers, as well as e-mail address.
Key words: A list of 3–10 key words should be included for indexing purposes.
Abstract: Provide on a separate page an abstract of not more than 250 words. This abstract should consist of four paragraphs, labeled Background, Methods, Results, and Conclusions. They should briefly describe, respectively, the problem being addressed in the study, how the study was performed, the salient results, and what the authors conclude from the results. The text should be arranged in the following sections: Introduction, Material and Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgement, References.
Footnotes: Avoid footnotes. When essential, they are numbered consecutively and typed at the foot of the appropriate page.
Tables and illustrations: Tables and illustrations (both numbered in Arabic numerals) should be prepared on separate pages. Tables require a heading and figures a legend, also prepared on a separate page. For the reproduction of illustrations, only good drawings and original photographs can be accepted; negatives or photocopies cannot be used. Due to technical reasons, figures with a screen background should not be submitted. When possible, group several illustrations on one block for reproduction (max. size 180 x 223 mm) or provide crop marks. Each illustration must be labeled with its number and the author’s name. Electronically submitted b/w half-tone and color illustrations must have a final resolution of 300 dpi after scaling (final size), line drawings one of 800–1,200 dpi. Figure files must not be embedded in a document file but submitted separately (for detailed instructions, see Online Submission Instructions).
Abbreviations: Avoid overuse of abbreviations. Introduce an abbreviation only when the same term occurs three or more times.
Color Illustrations
Online edition: Color illustrations are reproduced free of charge. In the print version, the illustrations are reproduced in black and white. Please avoid referring to the colors in the text and figure legends.
Print edition: Up to 6 color illustrations per page can be integrated within the text at CHF 800.00 per page.
References
In the text identify references by Arabic numerals [in square brackets]. Material submitted for publication but not yet accepted should be noted as 'unpublished data' and not be included in the reference list. The list of references should include only those publications which are cited in the text. Do not alphabetize; number references in the order in which they are first mentioned in the text. The surnames of the authors followed by initials should be given. There should be no punctuation other than a comma to separate the authors. Preferably, please cite all authors. Abbreviate journal names according to the Index Medicus system. (Also see International Committee of Medical Journal Editors: Uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals.

Digital Object Identifier (DOI)
S. Karger Publishers supports DOIs as unique identifiers for articles. A DOI number will be printed on the title page of each article. DOIs can be useful in the future for identifying and citing articles published online without volume or issue information. More information can be found at www.doi.org
Author's ChoiceTM
Karger's Author's ChoiceTM service broadens the reach of your article and gives all users worldwide free and full access for reading, downloading and printing at www.Karger.com. The option is available for a one-time fee of CHF 3,000.00, which is a permissible cost in grant allocation. More information can be found at www.karger.com/authors_choice.
NIH-Funded Research
The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) mandates under the NIH Public Access Policy that final, peer-reviewed manuscripts appear in its digital database within 12 months of the official publication date. As a service to authors, Karger submits the final version of your article on your behalf to PubMed Central. For those selecting our premium Author's ChoiceTM service, we will send your article immediately upon publishing, accelerating the accessibility of your work without the usual embargo. More details on NIH's Public Access Policy is available here.
Self-Archiving
Karger permits authors to archive their pre-prints (i.e. pre-refereeing) or post-prints (i.e. final draft post-refereeing) on their personal or institution's servers, provided the following conditions are met: Articles may not be used for commercial purposes, must be linked to the publisher's version, and must acknowledge the publisher's copyright. Authors selecting Karger's Author's ChoiceTM feature, however, are also permitted to archive the final, published version of their article, which includes copyediting and design improvements as well as citation links.
Page Charges
There are no page charges for papers of 5 or fewer printed pages (including tables, illustrations and references). Each additional complete or partial page is charged to the author at CHF 325.00. The allotted size of a paper is 5 printed pages (6,460 characters per page), which is equal to approx. 14 manuscript pages including tables, illustrations and references.
Proofs
Unless indicated otherwise, proofs are sent to the first-named author and should be returned with the least possible delay. Alterations made in proofs, other than the correction of printer’s errors, are charged to the author. No page proofs are supplied.
Reprints
Order forms and a price list are sent with the proofs. Orders submitted after the issue is printed are subject to considerably higher prices.
