Manuscript submitted contain:

1) Title
2) Abstract
3) Introduction
4) Methods
5) Results
6) Discussion
7) Conclusions
8) Recommendations
9) Bibliography

ad. a. TITLE

The title is structured as a declarative statement and focused on the results presented in the
manuscript. Punctuation "semicolon (;)" not recommended. The names of all authors without
a degree (first name, middle name, last name) is clearly explained, and the address of
departments and institutions. All the author's last name must be exactly as it should appear on
Google Scholar. Please consider this carefully, especially for writers with names that include
hyphens and prefix. JK will not replace the file to correct the name of the author after
publishing. 
ad. b. ABSTRACT

Abstract prepared correctly and informative in order to facilitate the process of review by the
journal's editor. Abstract background containing the results and conclusions of the methods
described clearly and concisely. The background to explain the context of the research, the
exact purpose, specific hypotheses to be tested. The method describes the study design, the
identification of specific methods and procedures. The results showed that the most important
results of the study, including the main data and statistical analysis. The main conclusion in
the form summary of the results of research (avoid generalization). Below the abstract,
provide and identify keywords or short phrases, including a group of subjects, which will
improve the ability to find the manuscript, should not be used adjectives. Please note that
during delivery of the manuscript, the author will be asked to provide keywords to assist
editors in determining the reviewers appropriate for manuscripts. Keywords for search
reviewer is the most fundamental word in the manuscript and may differ from the keyword
list for publication.

ad. c. INTRODUCTION

Explain clearly the background research conducted and its specific objectives, should not be a
thorough review of the literature. State the specific purpose or hypothesis of this study.

ad. d. METHOD

The method describes the study design, materials, and equipment, with a model number or a
catalog, if necessary. Explain kit, analysis, and commercial laboratories are used. Quote the
reference of the methods listed if possible and give a brief explanation if the
modification. Research using humans and animals as objects. The study report must include a
statement that the protocol was approved by an ethics committee. Documents can be
uploaded as a statement of additional files. Objects such as animal research are necessary to
explain how the animals are removed, control and treatment groups or probands experimental
animals. Information on age, weight, sex, race, described for the human object, and a
description of sex or strain to the experimental animals, include suppliers of experimental
animals. The method also describes the statistical tests used and the degree of probability (p)
indicated where differences were considered significant. If the data presented in the text,
indicate what they represent (ie., Mean ± SEM). Indicate whether the data is transformed
prior to analysis. Define statistical computer program that is used. The results of the analysis
are shown in the data tables and figures. Letters and symbols to show a significant difference,
and footnotes tables and figures. Provide statistical variability according to the estimated
error variance (SD or SEM) of the mean of the group. Standard ANOVA methodology
assumes homogeneous variance. If the error variance tested and found heterogeneous, change
the data before ANOVA, or use nonparametric tests. For a discussion of the calculation of the
variability and procedures arch curves. If the reported P values not significant, use only 2
digits past the decimal (for example, P = 0.15). Serve significant P values up to a maximum
of 4 decimal places (for example, P<0.0001); Useless acceptable. The coefficient is now a
maximum of 2 decimals (eg. R = 0.87, R2 = 0.16, ff.).

ad. e. RESULTS

The results described without repeating the methodology, introduction, or content on the
discussion. Duplication of data from tables or figures in the text avoided.
Results using the unit, it is necessary to metric units (eg, meters, kilograms, and L for height,
weight, and volume), such as Celsius (° C). For data reporting, the use of SI units (le System
Internationale d'Unites) (17) preferred (ie., Mmol / L, g / L), but not mandatory. Conventional
units such as mg / dL mg / mL can be accepted, using L, instead of l, for a liter. Use the unit
for the analytes/compounds are equally consistently throughout the manuscript. Instinctively
puts a replacement unit in the text or give a conversion factor in a footnote in a table or
legend acceptable image. The unit should not be pluralized (ie., Wk and not wks) or followed
by a period.

A useful site is: SI conversions: http://www.onlineconversion.com/

SI conversions: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

Conversion clinical SI: http://dwjay.tripod.com/conversion.html

While the figures presented to a variable must be properly and consistently. Use no more than
three significant figures (less, if appropriate) or justification for higher accuracy.
Tables or figures, adapted or quoted from another source must include the source in a
footnote in a table or legend images. Each table should have a clear title but concise.
Information about the method or material explanations can be included in a footnote to the
table, but the repetition of the methodology should be minimized. Clearly indicate the unit of
measure after the variables in line, above the first value in each column, or centered on all
columns of the units where applicable. Statistics show variability (ie., SD, combined SEM)
and the significance of the difference between data. Eliminate internal horizontal and vertical
rules before submitting your table. 

ad. f. DISCUSSION

The discussion explains the importance of the findings, the literature related to putting into
context. Explanation of the discussion should be clear and concise.
ad. g. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The main conclusion is the result of
research (avoid generalization), and refer to the description in the discussion, and answer the
research objectives. The conclusions are described in the form of points or narrative, logical
and precise.

ad. h. ACKNOWLEDGMENT (IF NECESSARY)

Technical assistance and advice can be described at the end of the text. Then the names of
individuals that are included in this section, the author is responsible for the written consent
of every person who communicates personally or recognized by the individual in the text.
