Guide for Authors
The journal publishes original articles emphasizing comparative and environmental aspects of the physiology, biochemistry, molecular biology, pharmacology, toxicology and endocrinology of animals. Adaptation and evolution as organizing principles are encouraged. Studies on other organisms will be considered if approached in a comparative context.
Part A. Molecular and Integrative Physiology deals with molecular, cellular, integrative, and ecological physiology. Topics include bioenergetics, circulation, development, excretion, ion regulation, endocrinology, neurobiology, nutrition, respiration, and thermal biology. Studies on regulatory mechanisms at any level or organization such as signal transduction and cellular interactions and control of behaviour are encouraged.
Part B. Biochemistry and Molecular Biology covers biochemical and molecular biological aspects of metabolism, enzymology, regulation, nutrition, signal transduction, promoters, gene structure and regulation, metabolite and cell constituents, macromolecular structures, adaptational mechanisms and evolutionary principles.
Part C. Toxicology and Pharmacology is concerned with chemical and drug action at different levels of organization, biotransformation of xenobiotics, mechanisms of toxicity, including reactive oxygen species and carcinogenesis, endocrine disruptors, natural products chemistry, and signal transduction. A molecular approach to these fields is encouraged.
Part D. Genomics and Proteomics covers the broader comprehensive approaches to comparative biochemistry and physiology that can be generally termed as "-omics", e.g., genomics, functional genomics (transcriptomics), proteomics, metabolomics, and underlying bioinformatics. Papers dealing with fundamental aspects and hypotheses in comparative physiology and biohcemistry are encouraged rather than studies whose main focus is purely technical of methodological.
Naturally, a certain degree of overlap exists between the different sections, and the final decision as to where a particular manuscript will be published after passing the rigorous review process lies with the editorial office.
Submission and review of manuscripts
Online submission of papers
Manuscripts are to be submitted to the CBP Editorial Office electronically at  http://gemini.econ.umd.edu/cbp_d .
After registration, authors are asked to upload their article and associated artwork, preferably in a single file. If necessary, the CBP Editorial Office will generate a PDF file to be used for the reviewing proces.
Full instructions on how to use the online submission tool will be available at the above web address or can be requested by e-mail from the CBP Editorial Office (CBPjrnl@interchange.UBC.ca).
During the submission proces, authors are asked to select an appropriate section of CBP and to provide names and address (including e-mail) of at least five researchers of recognized competence who may be considered as reviewers.
Review articles
Before writing their manuscripts, potential authors of review articles should contact one of the Editors who, after consultations with the other editor and/or members of the Editorial Board, will provide feedback on suitability of the topic. Reviews should be topical, and serve as critical appraisals of areas of research. They should provide an up-to-date analysis of concepts and point out future directions. For manuscript preparation, follow the instructions below.
Revision of manuscripts: Revised manuscripts must be submitted within two months of the authors' receipt of the referees' reports. Otherwise they will be considered as new submissions.
Proofs: The corresponding author will receive proofs by e-mail or post. Proofs must be checked immediately and returned to Elsevier. Corrections to the proofs should be restricted to printer's errors only. Substantial alterations may be charged to the author. Elsevier will do everything possible to get your article corrected and published as quickly and accurately as possible. Therefore, it is important to ensure that all of your corrections are sent back to us in one communication. Subsequent corrections will not be possible, so please ensure your first sending is complete.
Reprints: The corresponding author will receive twenty five offprints free of charge. Additional offprints may be purchased using the order form accompanying the proofs.
Page charges: CBP has no page charges.
Preparation of manuscripts
Sections: Manuscripts should be subdivided into the following sections: Title page, abstract, introduction, materials and methods, results, discussion, acknowledgements, references, captions to figures, tables.
Format: All sections of the manuscript must be 1.5-spaced with 2.5 cm (1 inch) margins. Pages should be numbered consecutively. Avoid footnotes. Underline only words or letters that will be printed in italics. Mark the position of each figure and table in the margin. The full Latin name of all species used in the study must be supplied.
Title page: The title should be short, concise and informative. Consult a recent issue of CBP for author format ( http://www/elsevier.com/locate/cbp ). The author's name should be followed by his/her department, institution, city, and country. Indicate the author to whom correspondence and proofs should be addressed, and supply full postal address as well as phone and fax numbers, and an e-mail address. If submitting a review article, write "REVIEW' at the top of the title page.
Abstract: The second page of the manuscript must contain only the abstract and the key words. The abstract should be a single paragraph not exceeding 200 words. Non-standard abbreviations and reference citations should be avoided.
Key words: Up to eight key words, which may or may not appear in the title, should be listed in alphabetical order after the abstract. Only these key words, together with the title, will be used to compile the subject index.
References:
1. All publications cited in the text should be presented in alphabetical order in a list following the text of the manuscript.
2. In the text refer to the author's name and year of publication.
3. If reference is made in the text to a publication written by more than two authors the name of the first author should be used followed by "et al.'. In this list names of first authors and all co-authors should be mentioned.
4. References cited together in the text should be arranged chronologically.
5. The List of references should be arranged alphabetically on authors' names, and chronologically per author. Names of all authors must be included. Do not use et al. Publications by the same author(s) in the same year should be listed as 2000a, 2000b, etc.

Tables: Tables should be prepared as follows:
(a) Refer to current tables in the journal, for required spatial layout. If possible, a Times Roman font should be used.
(b) Each table, including heading and legend should be typed on a separate sheet. If possible, a Times Roman font should be used.
(c) Insert heavy rules at the head and foot of each table, and fine rules below column headings.
Italics: Genus and species names, and other words normally italicized, should be typed in italics or underlined.
Illustrations: Photographs, charts and diagrams are to be referred to as "figs" and should be ordered consecutively.
Colour Illustrations
If, together with your accepted article, you submit usable colour figures then Elsevier will publish these figures in colour on the web (e.g., ScienceDirect and other sites) free of charge. For colour reproduction in print, you will receive information regarding the costs from Elsevier after receipt of your accepted article. For further information on the preparation of electronic artwork, please see http://www.elsevier.com/artworkinstructions .
Please note: Because of technical complications which can arise by converting colour figures to 'grey scale' (for the printed version should you not opt for colour in print) please submit in addition usable black and white versions of the file(s) corresponding to all the colour illustrations.
As only one figure caption is used for both colour and black and white versions of figures, please ensure that the figure captions are meaningful for both versions, if applicable.
Instructions regarding GenBank/DNA Sequence Linking:
DNA sequences and GenBank Accesion numbers: Many Elsevier journals cite "gene accession numbers" in their running text and footnotes. Gene accession numbers refer to genes or DNA sequences about which further information can be found in the database at the National Center for Biotechnical Information (NCBI) at the National Library of Medicine. Elsevier authors wishing to enable other scientists to use the accession numbers cited in their papers via links to these sources, should type this information in the following manner:
For each and every accession number cited in an article, authors should type the accession number in bold, underlined text. Letters in the accession number should always be capitalised. (See Example 1 below). This combination of letters and format will enable Elsevier's typesetters to recognize the relevant texts as accession numbers and add the required link to GenBank's sequences.
Example 1: "B-cell tumor from a chronic lymphatic leukemia (GenBank accession no. BE675048 ), and a T-cell lymphoma (GenBank accession no. AA361117 )".
Authors must check accession numbers very carefully. An error in a letter or number can result in a dead link.
In the final version of the printed article, the accession number text will not appear bold or underlined (see Example 2 below).
Example 2: "B-cell tumor from a chronic lymphatic leukemia (GenBank accession no. BE675048), and a T-cell lymphoma (GenBank accession no. AA361117)".
In the final electronic copy, the accession number text will be linked to the appropriate source in the NCBI databases enabling readers to go directly to that source from the article (see Example 3 below).
Example 3: "B-cell tumor from a chronic lymphatic leukemia (GenBank accession no. BE675048), and a T-cell lymphoma (GenBank accession no. AA361117)".
Summary of requirements
1. Designate the corresponding author and provide telephone and fax numbers, and an e-mail address.
2. Provide an abstract of less than 200 words; append up to eight key words to the abstract page.
3. Check the style in which references are cited; unpublished work will not be listed in this section unless it is "in press".
4. If referencing manuscripts "in press", these must be uploaded as supplementary material during the manuscript submission process.
5. Provide names and addresses (including phone and fax numbers & e-mail addresses) of at least five researchers of recognized competence who may be considered as referees.
