About the journal
|
Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology is a repository of significant, full-length articles describing original experimental or theoretical research work pertaining to the scientific aspects of contaminants in the environment. It provides a place for the publication of detailed, definitive, complete, credible reports concerning advances and discoveries in the fields of air, water, and soil contamination and pollution, human health aspects, and in disciplines concerned with the introduction, presence, and effects of deleterious substances in the total environment. Acceptable manuscripts for the Archives are the ones that deal with some aspects of environmental contaminants, including those that lie in the domains of analytical chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, toxicology, agricultural, air, water, and soil chemistry.
All manuscripts are subject to review by workers in the field for significance, credibility and accuracy, as well as for proper arrangement (format, style, language, etc.) Review articles, abstracts, short communications or notes will not be accepted for publication. Where appropriate, these will be referred to Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, or Reviews of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology.

Manuscript Preparation and Submission
1. Manuscript. The manuscript should be written in clear, concise English. It should be typed in double-space, on a single side of blank white paper, with at least 2.5 cm margins, in 10 characters per inch (12 point) font. The title page must contain all contact information for the corresponding author, in English, including mailing address (street address), telephone number, FAX number, and E-Mail address.
Authors should retain a complete copy of their manuscripts, identical in every respect to the material submitted. Authors will be notified immediately upon receipt of new submissions and revised manuscripts.
Manuscripts must be no greater than 25 typewritten pages in length, including reference section and tables. All the pages should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals. Footnotes should be numbered consecutively in the text using Arabic numerals.
Tables should be typed in double-space and each should appear on a separate page, numbered consecutively in Arabic numberals, and kept at a minimum. Each
table should bear a title, including the table number and a brief description. Footnotes in tables should be designated consecutively by the lower-case alphabet. Tables should be placed immediately after the Reference section.
Figures (including graphs, line drawings and photographs) should be numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals, and kept at a minimum. Each figure should appear on a separate page and labeled with the figure number. If stand-alone photographs are used, each must be mounted to a separate page. Color photographs can only be accepted if the author agrees to bear the additional costs of reproduction.
A single page, preceding the figures should be entitled "Figure Captions" and contain a list of captions for all the figures. Each caption should include the figure number, title, and a brief description that is comprehensible without reference to the text
2. Submission. Hard copies (original plus two) should be mailed to the Editor (see address below) with no signature required for delivery. A floppy disk containing the electronic version of the manuscript, identical to the hard copies, should be included. All files in the electronic version, including figures, should be combined into a single file, if possible. If a disk is not included with the original hard copy submission, an electronic version of the manuscript will be requested by E-Mail. ELECTRONIC MANUSCRIPTS SHOULD NOT BE SENT BEFORE THE HARD COPIES, because the manuscript number must be referenced on the electronic version, and the manuscript number is not assigned until after the hard copies have been received. Along with the original hard copy submission, include a list of three to five names of qualified reviewers not associated with your institution, including address, telephone number, FAX number, and E-Mail address for each, if possible.
3. Copyright. Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before (except in the form of an abstract or as part of a published lecture, review, or thesis); that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere; that its publication has been approved by all coauthors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities at the institute where the work has been carried out; that, if and when the manuscript is accepted for publication, the authors agree to automatic transfer of the copyright to the publisher; that the manuscript will not be published elsewhere in any language without the consent of the copyright holders; that written permission of the copyright holder is obtained by the authors for material used from other copyrighted sources; and that any costs associated with obtaining this permission are the authors' responsibility.
4. Summary or Abstract. A concise but informative summary or abstract should follow the heading on the first page of the manuscript. It should be as brief as possible commensurate with the significant content and major findings presented in the manuscript.
5. References. All papers cited in the text should be given in parentheses (Child 1941, Godwin and Cohen 1969, MacWilliams et al. 1970), except when the author is mentioned, as for example, "and the study of Hillman and Tasca (1977)."
References to unpublished works should be kept to a minimum and mentioned only in the text itself in parentheses. References to published works are given at the end of the text in alphabetical order under the first author's name, citing all authors (surnames followed by initials throughout; do not use "and") according to the following rules and examples:
Periodicals: Name(s), initials, year of publication in parentheses, full article title, journal title as abbreviated in Chemical Abstracts' "List of Periodicals Abstracted", volume number followed by colon, first and last page numbers. Example:
Garcia-Bellido A, Merriam JR (1969) Cell lineage of the imaginal disc in Drosophila gynandromorphs. J Exp Zool 170:61-76
Books: Name(s), initials, year of publication in parentheses, full title, edition, volume number, name of publisher, place(s) of publication. Example:
Meltzer YL (1971) Hormonal and attractant pesticide technology. Noyes Data, Park Ridge, New Jersey
Multi-author books: Name(s), initials, year of publication in parentheses, full title.
In: name(s) and initial(s), of editor(s), the abbreviation ed(s) in parentheses, name
of publisher, place(s) of publication, first and last page numbers. Example:
Pittendrigh CS (1965) On the mechanism of entrainment of a circadian rhythm by light cycles. In: Aschoff J (ed) Circadian clocks. North-Holland, Amsterdam, p 276
References by the same author(s) are arranged chronologically. If more than one reference by the same author(s) published in the same year is cited, use a, b, and c after the year of publication in both text and list.
6. Nomenclature. All pesticides should be identified according to Chemical Abstracts, with the full chemical name in text in parentheses or brackets, the first time a common or trade name is used.
7. Abbreviations. Units of measurement are abbreviated in accordance with the last edition of the "Handbook for Authors of Papers," as used in the journals of the American Chemical Society, latest edition; all others are written out the first time used, giving the abbreviation in parentheses.
8. Symbols. Special symbols (e.g., Greek letters) are identified in the margin. The symbols used should conform with those given in the ACS Handbook for Authors.
9. Reprints. Reprints may be ordered from the publisher at the time the author returns the page proofs. Free reprints are not offered.
10. Page Charges. There are no page charges. However, the cost of excessive alterations resulting from authors examination of the page proofs is charged to authors.
11. Color Illustrations. Color can be used without charge for the electronic edition of the journal
but will appear in the printed version of the journal at the author's expense: $1150 for the first page
and $575 for each additional page within the same article.

Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for Print
General
Send illustrations separately from the text (i.e. files should not be integrated with the text files). Always send printouts of all illustrations.
Vector (line) Graphics
Vector graphics exported from a drawing program should be stored in EPS format.
Suitable drawing program: Adobe Illustrator. For simple line art the following drawing programs are also acceptable: Corel Draw, Freehand, Canvas.
No rules narrower than .25 pt.
No gray screens paler than 15% or darker than 60%.
Screens meant to be differentiated from one another must differ by at least 15%.
Spreadsheet/Presentation Graphics
Most presentation programs (Excel, PowerPoint, Freelance) produce data that cannot be stored in an EPS format. Therefore graphics produced by these programs cannot be used for print.
Halftone Illustrations
Black & white and color illustrations should be saved in TIFF format.
Illustrations should be created using Adobe Photoshop whenever possible.
Scans*
Scanned reproductions of black and white photographs should be provided as 300 ppi TIFF files.
Scanned color illustrations should be provided as TIFF files scanned at a minimum of 300 ppi with a 24-bit color depth.
Line art should be provided as TIFF files at 600 ppi.
* We do prefer having the original art as our printers have drum scanners which allow for better reproduction of critical medical halftones.
Graphics from Videos
Separate files should be prepared for frames from a video that are to be printed in the journal. When preparing these files you should follow the same rules as listed under Halftone Illustrations.
Guidelines for Electronically Produced Illustrations for ONLINE
Video
Quicktime (.mov) is the preferred format, but .rm, .avi, .mpg, etc. are acceptable.
No video file should be larger than 2MB. To decrease the size of your file, consider changing one or more of the following variables: frame speed, number of colors/greys, viewing size (in pixels), or compression. Video is subject to Editorial review and approval.
