About the journal

 

Biomaterials is an international journal covering the science and application of biomaterials and associated medical devices. It is the aim of the journal to provide a peer-reviewed forum for the publication of original papers and authoritative review papers dealing with the most important issues facing the use of materials in clinical practice. The scope of the journal covers the basic science and engineering aspects of biomaterials, including their mechanical, physical, chemical and biological properties, relevant design and production characteristics of devices constructed of these materials, and their clinical performance. In this context, biomaterials are defined as all those materials used in medical devices in which contact with the tissues of the patient is an important and guiding feature of their use and performance. They include a range of metals and alloys, glasses and ceramics, natural synthetics, polymers, biomimetics, composites and natural or tissue-derived materials, including combinations of synthetic materials and living tissue components. The journal is relevant to all applications of biomaterials including implantable medical devices, tissue engineering and drug delivery systems.

Instructions to Authors

 

Effective 1st June 2003, Biomaterials has moved to a web-based submission and review system. As of this date, email and hard copy have ceased to be acceptable modes of submission.

Editorial Manager is an web-based submission and review system. Authors may submit manuscripts and track their progress through the system to publication. Reviewers can download manuscripts and submit their opinions to the editor. Editors can manage the whole submission/review/revise/publish process.

Please register at: http://biomat.edmgr.com

Referees, whose names are not normally disclosed to the authors, will study all contributions which the Editor-in-Chief deems to be of sufficient significance and interest to be sent for peer review. The criteria by which this initial assessment is made include relevance to the scope of the journal, the originality of the work and its significance to the broad development of the field of biomaterials.

Author Agreement
In addition to uploading manuscripts and figures, it is imperative that the corresponding author of each manuscript uploads a separate "Author Agreement". The author agreement must unambiguoulsy state that that the paper being submitted:

1. Is original.
2. Has been written by the stated authors who are ALL aware of its content and approve its submission.
3. Has not been published previously.
4. Is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
5. If accepted will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in any language, without the written consent of the publisher.

NB The Author Agreement is independant of, and in addition to, the "Transfer of Copyright" agreement which is issued on acceptance.

Amendments to Manuscripts
In order to maintain the integrity of the scientific record, the version that is published in an issue on ScienceDirect and in print MUST be identical. One set of page proofs will be sent to the corresponding author, to be checked for typesetting/editing errors. Proofs are NOT to be considered as drafts. No changes in, or additions to, the accepted (and subsequently edited) manuscript will be allowed at this stage. Proofreading is solely the responsibility of the corresponding author.

Manuscript Preparation
General: Manuscripts must be word processed (preferably in Word format), double-spaced with wide margins and a font size of 12 or 10 pt. Please check the current style of the journal, particularly the reference style (Vancouver), and avoid excessive layout styling as most formatting codes will be removed or replaced during the processing of your article. In addition, 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. The corresponding author should be identified (include a Fax number and E-mail address). Full postal addresses must be given for all co-authors. The Editors reserve the right to adjust style to certain standards of uniformity. The preferred style is: Surname, Initials, Department, Institution, City/State, Postal Code, Country. Authors should retain copies of all versions of their manuscript submitted to the journal. Authors are especially requested to be vigilant over the submission of the correct version of the manuscript at the various stages of the editorial process.

Paper Length: Authors are urged to write as concisely as possible.

Abstracts: All manuscripts are to be supplied with an Abstract of about 100-200 words in length, with 4-6 keywords. A keyword list can be found at the end of these instructions (click here).

Text: Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors, Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text, Acknowledgements, Appendix, References, Figure Captions and then Tables. Do not import the Figures or Tables into your text. The corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk and footnote. All other footnotes (except for table footnotes) should be identified with superscript Arabic numbers. An abbreviated title for use as a running headline should also be supplied. Authors are requested to acknowledge funding sources for the work.

Units: The SI system should be used for all scientific and laboratory data; if, in certain instances, it is necessary to quote other units, these should be added in parentheses. Temperatures should be given in degrees Celsius. The unit 'billion' (109 in America, 1012 in Europe) is ambiguous and must not be used. If a large number of symbols are used it is helpful if authors submit a list of these symbols and their meanings.

References: All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references following the text of the manuscript. In the text refer to references by a number in square brackets on the line (e.g. Since Peterson[1]), and the full reference should be given in a numerical list at the end of the paper. References should be given in the following form, which is designated Vancouver :

1. Driessens FCM, Boltong MG, Bermudez O, Planell JA. Formulation and setting times of some calcium orthophosphate cements: a pilot study. J Mater Sci: Mater Med 1993;4:503-508.
2. Nancollas H. In vitro studies of calcium phosphate crystallisation. In: Mann S, Webb J, Williams RJP, editors. Biomineralization. Chemical and biochemical perspectives. New York: VCH, 1989. p. 157-182.
3. Brown W, Chow LC. Combinations of sparingly soluble calcium phosphates in slurries and paste as mineralizers and cements. US Patent No. 4612053, 1986.

Illustration Preparation In the initial submission and review stage, authors are required to provide electronic versions of their illustrations. When an article has been accepted, authors must be prepared to provide all illustrations in electronic and camera-ready format, (suitable for reproduction, which may include reduction, without retouching).

General: Information relating to the preferred formats for Artwork and Illustrations may be found at http://authors.elsevier.com. Photographs, charts and diagrams are all to be referred to as "Figure(s)" and should be numbered consecutively in the order to which they are referred. They should accompany the manuscript, but should not be included within the text. All hard copy illustrations should be clearly marked on the back with the figure number and the author's name. All figures are to have a caption. Captions should be supplied on a separate sheet.

Line drawings: All lettering, graph lines and points on graphs should be sufficiently large and bold to permit reproduction when the diagram has been reduced to a size suitable for inclusion in the journal. Dye-line prints or photocopies are not suitable for reproduction. Do not use any type of shading on computer-generated illustrations.

Photographs: Original photographs must be supplied as they are to be reproduced (e.g. black and white or colour). If necessary, a scale should be marked on the photograph. Please note that photocopies of photographs are not acceptable.

Colour: It is rarely necessary to produce art-work, including graphs and line drawings, in colour. Certain illustrations (e.g. micrographs showing multiple stains) will be approved for publication in colour but only if, in the opinion of the Editors, the figures convey information not apparent in monochrome. Authors will normally be expected to bear the additional cost of colour printing, although where funding cannot be obtained, a limited number of bursaries are available at the Editor's discretion.
Please note that if figures are supplied in colour, they will automatically be available online in colour at no extra charge, even if the print version is monochrome.

Tables: Tables should be numbered consecutively and given a suitable caption and each table typed on a separate sheet. Footnotes to tables should be typed below the table and should be referred to by superscript lowercase letters. No vertical rules should be used. Tables should not duplicate results presented elsewhere in the manuscript, (e.g. in graphs).

Acceptance
After acceptance, authors may be requested to provide Elsevier with hard-copy and electronic versions of their manuscript and their figures. The electronic copy, on floppy disk, CD-ROM or ZIP, should match the hardcopy exactly, therefore always keep a backup copy of the electronic file for reference and safety. Full details of electronic submission and formats can be obtained from http://authors.elsevier.com .
