B.2. Manuscripts Structure.

In general, Manuscripts should be organized in the following order: Title, Abstract, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results and Discussion, Conclusion, Acknowledgements (optional), and References.  These major headings should be typed in bold capital letters and set in the center of the page. The manuscript should be written according to this template.

 

TITLE. The title of the paper consists of no more than 20 words.  Abbreviations are not permitted in the title. The title is followed by the name of the authors and the complete institution address.  When a paper has several authors from different institutions, the contact author should be given.  A running head (an abbreviated title consisting of no more than 55 characters) should also appear above the title.

 

ABSTRACT. The abstract is written in Indonesian and in English. The abstract consists of no more than 200 words.  It starts with a clear statement of the experiment's objectives, followed by materials and methods, results, and an important conclusion. References are never cited in the abstract. Abbreviations that appear in the abstract should be defined when they are first used. At the end of the abstract, list up to 5 (five) keywords in alphabetical order that best describes the research's nature.

 

INTRODUCTION. The introduction should provide the readers with the information necessary for understanding the research presented in the paper.  Previous work on the topic should be summarized, and the objective of the current research should be clearly stated.

 

MATERIALS AND METHODS. The section of materials and methods should include a discussion of statistical analysis methods and specific equipment sources.  All modifications of the methods should be explained.

 

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. Results and discussion sections may be combined, or they may appear in a separate section.  In the case of being separated, the Results section should contain only the current author’s study results. There should be no literature comparisons. Those comparisons should appear in the Discussion section. The discussion should interpret the results clearly.

 

CONCLUSION. The conclusion should be written a maximum of 100 words. The recommendation can be added.

 

REFERENCES. All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references in chronological order. Use the following system for arranging the references:
