 Devoted to advancements in nutrition science, The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry presents experimental nutrition research as it relates to: biochemistry, neurochemistry, molecular biology, toxicology, physiology and pharmacology. Rigorous reviews by an international editorial board of distinguished scientists ensure publication of the most current and key research being conducted in nutrition at the animal and human level. In addition to its monthly features of critical reviews, research communications, and experimental methods, The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry also periodically publishes conference summaries, symposium reports, metabolic pathways, and short communications.
The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry has been accepted for coverage in MEDLINE. Issues will be covered beginning with the January 2003 issue

Instructions to Authors
The editors of The Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry (JNB) welcome the submission of original manuscripts on experimental and clinical nutrition as it interfaces with biochemistry, molecular biology, physiology, pharmacology, and toxicology. The scope of the journal includes the broad area of in vitro and in vivo studies of mechanistic aspects of nutritional sciences. The criteria for acceptance of papers submitted for publication are originality, quality and clarity of the content. Each manuscript is internally reviewed and prioritized before a full external review takes place. All contributions must be based on original, unpublished research and will be peer reviewed. All authors bear responsibility for ensuring the integrity and quality of their reported research. It is the author's responsibility to secure permission to use figures or tables that have been published elsewhere.
Contributions may be classified as original research, review, rapid communication or methodological articles. Most review articles are invited by the editor. Authors interested in submitting a review article should contact the editorial office. Rapid publication of original manuscripts is a goal of the journal. Manuscripts must be written in English. Each manuscript is considered for publication with the understanding that it has not been submitted to any other journal. Upon acceptance for publication, papers are subject to editorial review and revision.

Submission Guidelines
All manuscripts must be submitted via the Elsevier Editorial System (EES) at  http://ees.elsevier.com/jnb/ . Authors may send queries concerning the submission process, manuscript status or journal procedures to the Editorial Office (JNB@uky.edu). All correspondence regarding submitted manuscripts will be through e-mail. Authors who are unable to provide an electronic version or have other circumstances that prevent online submission must contact the Editorial Office prior to submission to discuss alternate options.
A manuscript submission through EES consists of a minimum of three distinct files: a cover letter; 3-5 suggested reviewers; and the manuscript. EES accepts files from a broad range of word processing applications. All three files must be typed in 12-point type, double-spaced with one-inch margins, and all pages should be numbered consecutively. The file should follow the general instructions on style/arrangement, and, in particular, the reference style. The file should use the wrap-around end-of-line feature, i.e., returns at the end of paragraphs only. Place two returns after every element, such as title, headings, and paragraphs.
In addition, Tables and Figures should be included as separate, individual files.
Revised manuscripts should also be accompanied by a file (separate from the cover letter) with responses to reviewers' comments. All files should be labeled with appropriate and descriptive file names (e.g., SmithText.doc, Fig1.eps, Table3.doc). The text, tables and graphics must be submitted as separate files. Complete instructions for electronic artwork submission are accessible via the JNB home page ( http://journals.elsevierhealth.com/periodicals/jnb/ ). The web site guides authors through the creation and uploading of the various files. The preferred file format is Microsoft Word. Please note that PDF files are not allowed for submission. When the submission files are uploaded, the system automatically generates an electronic (PDF) proof which is then used for review.
Cover Letter
Provide a cover letter indicating the name, mailing address, telephone, fax number, and e-mail address of the corresponding author. The cover letter must state that: all authors listed have contributed to the work, all authors have agreed to submit the manuscript to JNB, no part of the work has been published before, except in abstract form, and all human and animal studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committees. All authors listed in a manuscript submitted to JNB must have contributed substantially to the work, participated in the writing of the manuscript, and seen and approved the submitted version. All individuals who have contributed to the writing of the manuscript must be listed as authors. The editor reserves the right to reject manuscripts that do not comply with the above-mentioned requirements.
Suggested Reviewers
Provide a list of 3 to 5 suggested reviewers for your manuscript. Please be sure to give complete contact information with the e-mail address being the most important.

Illustrations
To properly submit digital artwork, please see "Artwork Instructions" on http://ees.elsevier.com/jnb/ or http://authors.elsevier.com for details on image formats, sizing, naming conventions, preparation, and file delivery of your digital artwork. Digital artwork that does not conform to these instructions will be rejected.
Supplemental Data
Supplemental data will include parts of the manuscript that are not essential for the hard-copy version of JNB, but will be available with the electronic version of the manuscript. This may include microarray data, large or oversize figures and extensive tables. Authors are encouraged to designate material for on-line use only; in communication with the authors, the Editors also reserve the right to suggest and decide what parts of the manuscript can be online-only.
Revised Manuscripts
Please provide a separate file that clearly addresses the reviewers concerns. In the letter that describes the responses to the reviewers' comments, changes made in the revised manuscript must be clearly identified with page and line numbers. Once a revised manuscript is accepted for publication, a proof is prepared and submitted for final review to the corresponding author. Subsequently, the corrected proof will be published in JNB online as an 'article-in-press' available for immediate citation. The authors are solely responsible for the accuracy of their articles. Once a manuscript is selected for inclusion in an issue, the article will be updated with volume, issue, and page information.
Scientific Correspondence
Letters to the Editor will be considered for publication at the discretion of the editor. Submission of a letter constitutes permission for publication. Letters are subject to editing and abridgement.
Reprints
An order form will be sent to the corresponding author from the publisher at the time your manuscript begins production.

Affiliations of authors should include corporate appointments relating to or in connection with products or companies mentioned in the article, or otherwise bearing on the subject matter thereof. Other pertinent financial relationships, such as consultancies, stock ownership or other equity interests or patent-licensing arrangements, should be disclosed to the Editor-in-Chief in the cover letter at the time of submission. Such relationships may be disclosed in the Journal at the discretion of the Editor-in-Chief in footnotes appearing on the title page.
