About the journal
Since its inception in 1965, Carbohydrate Research has gained a reputation for its high standard and wide scope which includes all aspects of carbohydrate chemistry and biochemistry. Articles published in the journal cover sugars and their derivatives (also cyclitols, and model compounds for carbohydrate reactions), oligo- and polysaccharides, nucleosides, nucleotides, and glycoconjugates. These systems are considered from the viewpoints of:
- chemical synthesis; the study of structures and stereochemistry; reactions and their mechanisms; isolation of natural products; physicochemical studies; macromolecular dynamics; analytical chemistry; biochemistry (biosynthesis, metabolism, degradation, structural and functional biochemistry, enzyme mechanisms, glycosidases and glycosyl transferases, etc.);
- action of enzymes; immunochemistry; technological aspects
Instructions to Authors
General
Contributions to Carbohydrate Research may be submitted as Full Papers, Notes, and Rapid Communications and Perspectives. To be considered, articles must deal with original research. The results must not have been published or submitted for publication elsewhere, except that Full Papers may be used for complete reports of findings that were first presented in Rapid Communications or abstracts of meetings. Authors are encouraged to write in English, but articles are also published in French and German.
Preparation of Manuscripts
For illustrations of the layout of the classes of articles (Full Papers, Perspectives, Notes, and Rapid Communications), authors are earnestly encouraged to examine a current issue of the journal, e.g. the free sample copy available online
http://www.elsevier.com/locate/carres. In addition, authors may wish to refer to "The ACS Style Guide" as the definitive reference for matters of editorial style.
Articles should consist of:
A graphical abstract-summarises the article in a concise pictorial form, using the template shown in the journal and in the PDF version of the instructions to authors.
A title - this should be concise, but specific enough to alert the readers to whom the article is directed when seen in a table of contents, database, etc.
A listing of the author(s) with the address(es) of their institutions - please provide one fully spelled-out given name (forename) for each author. The corresponding author should always be indicated by an asterisk.
An abstract - this should be concise and independent of the body of the paper. Full Papers in French or German should include an English version of the abstract in addition to the one in the original language.
A listing of keywords (typically 3-6).
The body of the text (including tables, charts, and figures, and a bibliography). Typically the body comprises sections labelled Introduction, Results and discussion, and Experimental, but this specific structure is not obligatory. Authors are free to vary the organization of articles as needed for optimal presentation of their subject matter.
Acknowledgments - if desired.
References - bibliographic references should be numbered in the order in which they are cited, being identified in the text by superscript Arabic numerals, and listed in a section at the end of the paper. Titles of journals should be abbreviated according to the Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index (CASSI).
For example:
1. Borén, H. B.; Garegg, P. J.; Wallin, N.H. Acta Chem. Scand., 1972, 26, 1082-1086. [Inclusive pages are required].
2. Ledrut, H. U.S. Patent 2 551 982, 1951; Chem. Abstr., 1952, 51, 7128i. [If possible include a reference to Chemical Abstracts, or to the World Patent Index (Derwent Publishers).]
3. Wolfrom, M.L.; Szarek, W.A. Halogen Derivatives. In The Carbohydrates, Chemistry and Biochemistry , 2nd ed; Pigman, W., Horton, D., Eds; Academic Press: New York, 1972; Vol. 1A, pp239-251.
Unpublished material: Papers that have been accepted but not yet published may be listed in the References section as "in press". Personal communications, manuscripts in preparation or submitted but not yet accepted, and "unpublished data" may also be listed in this section.
The References section should not be used for non-bibliographic comments, which ideally should be included in the text but, if absolutely necessary, may be treated as footnotes.
Chemical and Biochemical Nomenclature
The nomenclature of all carbohydrates and glycoconjugates should follow the recommendations of the IUPAC-IUBMB Joint Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature: "Nomenclature of Carbohydrates (Recommendations 1996)" published in Pure Appl. Chem., 1996, 68, 1919-2008 as well as Carbohydr. Res. 1997, 297, 1-92 and elsewhere, including the World-Wide Web at http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iupac/2carb/.
For any enzyme having a substantial role in an article, the EC number should be cited when the enzyme is first mentioned. A complete and definitive list of EC numbers, which updates the printed version (Enzyme Nomenclature, Academic Press, 1992), can be found on the World-Wide Web at http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme.
Title Compounds
3.1.1. Methyl 6-O-tert-butyldimethylsilyl- -D-allopyranoside (4).
Note that the (numbered) compound is an example of a title compound, which should satisfy certain criteria if it is to be listed this way. Convincing evidence for identity and purity must be presented for allnew carbohydrate derivatives listed as title compounds. Ordinarily, identity is established by NMR and mass spectral data. As evidence of purity authors are required to include an elemental (combustion) analysis (minimally C and H), with values deviating from the theoretical not more than  0.4% absolute. When a C and H analysis is not feasible (e.g. very small amounts of material available) the criteria used to assess purity should be specified; these should include NMR observations (absence of extraneous lines in a spectrum run at high sensitivity) and chromatographic data (GLC, HPLC, or TLC at high sensitivity). Also desirable are m/z values from mass spectra.
It is not expected that all the intermediates in a synthetic sequence will be purified to the point of giving satisfactory elemental analyses. Many compounds will be used in a subsequent step without being refined to ultimate purity. However, the description of the preparation of such compounds should be consolidated with the description of the next title compound in the series.
Listing of Physical Data
The preferred order is: mp (if applicable); [ ]D (normally required for chiral compounds); Rf values (if pertinent): electronic-spectral data (UV, IR, if recorded); NMR data (if not presented in a table); MS. Note the use of semicolons to separate the successive items, and the use of ACS-approved abbreviations (see ACS Style Guide). Elemental analysis results follow the last spectral data, in the same paragraph. Use the following format: Anal. Calcd for C13H17BrO8S: C, 37.78; H, 4.15; Br, 19.34; S, 7.76. Found: C, 37.86; H, 4.13; Br, 19.45; S, 7.84. Note the arrangement of element symbols in the molecular formula: C, H, then the remaining symbols in alphabetical order.
NMR data - Authors are encouraged to use tables for the presentation of NMR data. For listings as running text please adhere to the following format: 1H NMR (CDCl3):  3.86 (dd, 1 H, J3,4 6.7, J4,5 10.7 Hz, H-4), .....
Tables and Figures
These should be so constructed as to be intelligible without reference to the text. Every table should have a heading, as should every column in a table. Every figure should have a caption (which should be provided on a separate page from the figure). Where the figure is a graph all axes should be labelled and provided with a scale if appropriate. All graphics must be labeled with the figure or scheme number and the corresponding author's name (either on the back if submitted on paper or with a clear file name if using online submission).
Figures should be submitted in a form suitable for direct reproduction. They should be provided as carefully prepared black line drawings on a plain white background. Charts and drawings produced by computer must be prepared at a resolution of 300 dpi or better. All graphics (including chemical structures) must be supplied camera-ready, for reproduction at single or double column width (83mm or 176mm, respectively). Authors should take particular care to ensure that lettering on a figure will remain legible after reduction.
Formula charts and Schemes
Particular attention should be paid to current conventions for drawing sugar ring structures (tapered thickening of forward edges, etc.). Structural formulas should be grouped for insertion in the text at appropriate points. Such groups need not have a caption, but those showing reaction sequences (i.e. containing arrows) may be designated Scheme 1, Scheme 2, etc. In charts and schemes formula numbers must follow in sequence across the page, except where a single structure with R groups represents two or more compounds. The sequence then follows the listing below the structure, which should be in "tabular" format.
Submission of Manuscripts
Carbohydrate Research manuscripts can be submitted by mail (post) or by using the new online submission system.
Mailing of manuscripts
The initial submission should consist of quadruplicate paper copies; after refereeing is complete and any necessary changes have been incorporated, the final (revised) copy should be furnished on floppy disk, CD or SyQuest with two paper copies. Please label all disks with "Carbohydrate Research", your name, software, hardware used and file names with the correct extension (e.g. Fig1.cdx, tbl1-6.xls). Save text on a separate disk from the graphics, include the text and tables in one file, and provide graphics and structures in separate numbered files. Most formatting codes will be removed or replaced on processing your article, so there is no need for you to use excessive layout styling. Please do not use options such as automatic word breaking, justified layout, double columns or automatic paragraph numbering (especially for numbered references). However do use bold face, italic, subscripts, superscripts etc. It is essential that the electronic and hardcopy versions are identical. The hardcopy will be used as the definitive version of the article.
Paper manuscripts should be sent to one of the Editors:
D.C. Baker, Department of Chemistry, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, TN 37996-1600, USA.
J. Defaye, Departement de Pharmacochemie Moleculaire/Glucides, Universite Joseph Fourier-Grenoble 1, BP 138, F-38243 Meylan Cedex, France.
D. Horton, Department of Chemistry, The American University, 4400 Massachusetts Ave., N.W., Washington, DC 20016-8014, USA.
E.F. Hounsell, School of Biological & Chemical Sciences, Birkbeck University of London, Gordon House, 29 Gordon Square, London WC1H 0PP, UK.
Online submission
Manuscripts can be submitted using the online submission and review environment. Authors are required to go to the website and upload their article and its associated artwork. A PDF file is generated, and the reviewing process is carried out using that PDF. All correspondence between Editor and author is performed by e-mail. Authors are, however, legally obliged to sign and return a physical transfer of copyright form by conventional mail. In their electronic version, authors are requested to follow the guidelines for submitting disks. The submission site and full instructions can be found at http://www.elsevier.com/locate/carres.
The paper should be submitted as a single file, prepared with a standard word-processor such as Microsoft Word, with embedded tables and graphics. Please note that any embedded graphics must also be submitted as separate, original files. The preferred formats for graphics files are tiff or postscript (.eps or .ps).
Book reviews - Books suitable for review in the "Book reviews" section should be sent to Professor D. Horton at the address given above.
Proofs, Offprints
Proofs: One set of page proofs in PDF format will be sent by e-mail to the corresponding author, to be checked for typesetting/editing. No changes in, or additions to, the accepted (and subsequently edited) manuscript will be allowed at this stage. Proofreading is solely your responsibility. A form with queries from the copyeditor may accompany your proofs. Please answer all queries and make any corrections or additions required.
As soon as proofs have been approved, they are published online as an "Article in Press" on the Carbohydrate Research page on ScienceDirect (www.sciencedirect.com). "Articles in Press" take full advantage of the enhanced ScienceDirect functionality, including the ability to be cited using their DOI article identifier. When the final article is assigned to an issue of the journal, the "Article in Press" version is removed and will appear in the associated online journal issue.
Offprints: Twenty-five offprints will be supplied to the corresponding author free of charge. Additional offprints and copies of the issue can be ordered at a specially reduced rate using the order form sent to the corresponding author after the manuscript has been accepted. This order form should be returned promptly since the price of offprints ordered after publication is substantially higher and will incur a 50% surcharge.
Copyright
Upon acceptance of an article, authors will be asked to transfer copyright. This transfer will ensure the widest possible dissemination of information. A letter will be sent to the corresponding author confirming receipt of the manuscript. A form facilitating transfer of copyright will be provided.
If excerpts from other copyrighted works are included, the author(s) must obtain written permission from the copyright owners and credit the source(s) in the article. Elsevier Science has preprinted forms for use by authors in these cases: contact ES Global Rights Department, P.O. Box 800, Oxford, OX5 1DX, UK; phone: (+44) 1865 843830, fax: (+44) 1865 853333, e-mail: permissions@elsevier.com.
