Instructions for Authors
Online Manuscript Submission: Manuscripts must only be submitted online to the Bentham Science Editorial Office. It is preferable that authors first send an abstract to the editor, prior to submitting the full manuscript. The submitted abstract should outline the intended contents and coverage of the article. Abstracts may be sent either by e-mail to the editorial office at cpa@bentham.org or alternatively by the Internet at www.bentham.org/onlAbsSub.htm
After approval of your abstract by the editor, you may submit your full manuscript either by e-mail (file size restricted) or by online submission.
For short review manuscripts these may be submitted as an e-mail attachment (maximum file size 512 KB) to the editorial office at cpa@bentham.org
For online submission of manuscripts, these should be submitted via our online manuscript submission service available at www.bentham-mps.org or by FTP submission at www.bentham-ftp.org
For all online submissions, please provide your complete manuscript in the form of a single zipped folder containing soft copies of all the material (main text in MS word format, figures / illustrations, scanned photographs, tables, chemical structures drawn in ChemDraw) as separate files, while a PDF version of the entire manuscript must also be included with all the figures / illustrations / tables / chemical structures etc. embedded in the text exactly in the manner as they should appear in print.
Authors are required to proofread the PDF version of their manuscript before submission. The Publishers will not be responsible for any error occurring in the manuscript in this regard.
Manuscript Length: There is no limit on the number of pages that may be submitted, however, page lengths can vary for mini-reviews of up to 12 journal pages and for longer reviews up to 30 journal pages. A printed journal page is ca. 900 words (excluding diagrams and figures).
Manuscript Organization: The manuscript should be divided as: Title page, abstract and the main text. The text may be subdivided further according to the areas to be discussed. The Acknowledgements (if any) and Reference sections must then follow.
Conflict of Interest: Financial contributions to the work being reported should be clearly acknowledged, as should any potential conflict of interest.
Title Page: The first page should contain the title, the author's full names, institutional affiliations and location, with an asterisk in front of the name of the principal author. The corresponding author should be designated and their full address, business telephone and fax numbers and e-mail address must be stated to receive correspondence and galley proofs.
Abstract: The abstract should not exceed 200 words and should condense the essential features of the review article.
Key Words: Authors must supply up to six key words along with their manuscript.
Text: The main text should begin on a separate page and it may be subdivided into separate sections. The reference numbers should be given in square brackets in the text. Acknowledgements should be kept to a minimum.
Tables:
- Data Tables should be submitted in Microsoft Excel or in Microsoft Word table format.
- Each table should include a title/caption explaining what the table shows. Detailed legends may then follow.
- Tables should be given on separate pages with indications on the left hand margin to the text, as to the appropriate placement of the tables.
- Tables should not contain vertical rules.
- Columns and rows of data should be made visibly distinct by ensuring the borders of each cell display as black lines.
- Tables should be numbered consecutively in order of their citation in the body of the text, with Arabic numerals.
- If a reference is cited in both the table and text, insert a lettered footnote in the table to refer to the numbered reference in the text.
- Tabular data provided as additional files can be submitted as an Excel spreadsheet.
Figures / Illustrations:
All authors must strictly follow the guidelines below for preparing illustrations for publication in Current Pharmaceutical Analysis.
Editorial Requirements:
The quality of the illustrations printed in the journal largely depends on the quality of the figures/illustration provided by the author. In preparing artwork or graphics for publication, keep in mind the following points.
- Submit the original artwork or a photographic print of the original for publication.
- Do not submit photocopies. (Hardcopy submission requirement).
- Illustrations should be provided as separate files, not embedded in the text. (Hardcopy submission requirement).
- Remove all color from graphics except for those illustrations (Greyscale), which are intended to be printed in color.
- Good quality of hardcopy originals are a requirement.
- Figures should be referred to in the text with figure numbers in bold within round bracket.
- Revised manuscripts should contain a complete set of artwork and photographs.
Technical Details:
- Figures should be provided on high quality, white, smooth opaque paper. (Hardcopy requirement).
Format & Resolution:
- The following file formats can be accepted. (Preference in order of appearance): PDF, TIFF, JPEG, GIF.
- Illustrations must fit a single or double column format on the journal page, according to the following guideline below:
|
HEIGHT |
WIDTH |
|
SINGLE COLUMN |
24 cm (max) |
8.5 cm (max) |
|
DOUBLE COLUMN |
24 cm (max) |
18 cm (max) |
- Whenever possible, submit graphics that do not have to be reduced to fit the standard figure size.
- Use the best resolution available (hardcopy submission requirement). For online submission the maximum resolution is 300 dpi.
- Avoid textures and shadings giving a three-dimensional effect to the illustration.
- Symbols and lettering in the illustration should be of similar size.
- Smaller lettering is used.
- Font: Times New Roman or Helvetica is preferable. Font size: 10pt (maximum).
- Line drawings should have clear and sharp lines and should be of uniform density. Moreover, lines should be continuous without any breaks.
- Do not use lines thinner than 1 point.
Color Figures / Illustrations:
Photographs:
Submit high-contrast prints that are of single- or double-column width so that they will not have to be reduced when printed. Negatives are not acceptable. However, in case of hardcopy submission, color illustrations and plates can be published from 35 mm color slides.
Chemical Structures: Chemical structures must be prepared according to the guidelines below.
Structures should be prepared using a suitable drawing program e.g. ChemDraw and provided as separate file, submitted both on disk and in printed formats.
Numbers in bold should identify all chemical structure. If a name is also used to describe the compound, the associated number in bold should be in parenthesis,
