Paper Selection
Papers are critically reviewed by referees. On their advice the Editor accepts or rejects the paper, or returns the paper for revision. Authors are normally supplied with referees comments within 28 days.
Preparation
General. All papers must be in English. (Occasionally, Spanish versions of accepted English papers are also published.) Those whose first language is not English and do not have a good command of English are advised to seek assistance. Papers requiring a great deal of editorial work may be sent back to authors for revision. Authors are advised to study a recent issue of ISJ and must ensure that the paper to be submitted follows the pattern of published papers.
Length. Articles should be in the region of 1500 and 3500 words (excluding abstract).
Title. This should be concise, specific and informative with maximum number of relevant key words to facilitate retrieval and indexing by bibliographic searching techniques.
Authors’ names. Each must have surname in full and initials. Give the full address(es) where the work was done. If the present address(es) of author(s) has changed, then this should be given in a footnote.
Abstract. Provide a concise factual statement in around 150-200 words why the work was done and what are the principal findings. A well written abstract will be intelligible without reference to the paper itself. Acronyms and abbreviations must be avoided.
Text. An introductory statement should briefly describe the aims of investigation, presenting only essential background without summarising the work itself. Technical terms should be defined. Symbols, abbreviations and acronyms must be defined the first time they are used. In research papers, present techniques used in sufficient detail to allow them to be repeated.
Units of measurement. All data must be presented in metric units, although equivalent local units may be given in parentheses.
Graphics. Graphs are preferred to tables, and in most cases two- instead of three-dimensional graphs are best.
References. Authors have flexibility. Either a numbered system or Harvard system of citation can be used in the text. The list of References must include all those cited. All authors names should be given for each paper, together with the year of publication, full title, the full name of the journal/bulletin/report/book/proceedings, and in the case of books, name of the publisher and where it was published.
Submission of papers. All papers must be submitted in an electronic format, with text in MSWord, figures in Excel and images in TIFF/JPEG file (600 dpi). This should be sent to the editor either via email (or several emails if it is a big file) or through a floppy disc or a CD at the following address: Editor, International Sugar Journal, 80 Calverley Road, Tunbridge Wells, TN1 2UN, UK. Email: editorial@world-sugar.com.
