About the journal
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology (Prikladnaya biokhimiya i mikrobiologiya) is a journal presenting original papers on research in the fields of biochemistry and microbiology that have or may have practical applications. Among its initiators and first authors are well-known scientists, such as A.I. Oparin, V.N. Shaposhnikov, N.M. Sisakyan, V.N. Bukin, S.V. Durmishidze, T.B. Darkanbaev, and A.S. Vecher. The scope of the journal includes the production of enzymes, vitamins, and other biologically active substances; studies on the processing of raw materials; and the microbiological synthesis of food and feed products. New research methods and devices are also covered. In addition to original papers, the journal presents authoritative review articles written at the invitation of the Editorial Board, book reviews, and chronicles. Scientists from research institutes and higher educational institutions located in the territory of the former Soviet Union and foreign authors are encouraged to submit their papers for publication.
Instructions to Authors
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology will publish papers dealing with biochemical and microbiological processes and phenomena that have practical applications. Articles on processes occurring in preparation, storage, and processing of raw products of plant and animal origin are welcome, as well as those describing production and mechanisms of action of vitamins, enzymes, and other biologically active compounds. Another field covered by the journal is microbiological synthesis of food products and feed from food and nonfood sources. Along with experimental works, the journal will publish descriptions of new techniques and instruments, commentaries, and chronicles. Review articles are only acceptable if invited by the Editorial Board.
The main focus of this journal is on biological issues; therefore, details of engineering and technological features of biochemical processes should be omitted. Articles submitted for publication should present new data and give sufficient detail to ensure that the results be reproducible. Preliminary communications and fragments of incomplete works will be declined. Papers should be concise and clear.
The original manuscript must be submitted in Russian. Each article should contain the following parts:
1. The title should be capitalized, contain no more than ten words, and reflect the essence of the paper.
2. Name(s) and initials of the author(s).
3. Institution(s); please indicate the zip code and city of each institution. Asterisks should indicate which author works at which institution. Telephone, fax, email, and other telecommunication numbers of the corresponding author.
4. An abstract of no more than ten typewritten lines should contain complete information on the contents of the article. 5. The text should begin with a brief description of the background of the study with only essential references.
6. Materials and Methods should contain a full description of the object of the study (including Latin names), the conditions of growth of microorganisms and higher plants, and consecutive steps of the experiment. The original names of instruments and reagents should be specified, and the manufacturer's name (company and country) should be given in parentheses. Details of statistical procedures should be provided. Well-known methods, such as protein determination by Lowry's method or chlorophyll determination by Arnon's method, do not need full references. Descriptions of microorganisms should include: the full Latin name (binomial nomenclature), the names of the authors who described (redefined) the species (this should be given on the first occurrence), and the generic name (abbreviated to one letter on subsequent occurrences). When the species is not indicated, the generic name is not abbreviated and should be followed by sp. Please indicate the source from which the particular strain has been obtained.
7. Results and Discussion. This section should provide a concise description of results illustrated by tables and figures (which should not contain the same data). The text should explain the contents of tables and figures rather than simply repeating the data. Discussion should not reiterate the results. This section should be completed with a major conclusion that answers the question specified in the introductory part of the article. Please use only standard abbreviations listed in the appendix for this instruction. Other abbreviations, if introduced, should be explained in the footnote in the first page of the manuscript. Tables and figures should be numbered. The appropriate place for each of them should be indicated in square boxes on the left margin. Each table should be submitted on a separate sheet and have a title. Two copies of each figure should be submitted. The figures should contain minimum inscriptions. The graph axes should be labeled with units of measure only (e.g., mg CO2 instead of "Production of CO2 by the cell culture"). Photographs should be presented in three copies, one of which should be free of inscriptions.
8. References should be listed and numbered in the order of their appearance in the article. Use a number in brackets when citing references in text. When several references appear in sequence, they should be placed in chronological order. References in the list should be formatted as indicated below.
