2. SUBMISSION AND ACCEPTANCE OF MANUSCRIPTS
Manuscripts should be sent for publication to the Editor-in-Chief:
Professor Dr. rer. nat. habil. Harald Rosenthal
Schifferstr. 48
21629 Neu Wulmstorf, Germany
Please submit your manuscript on diskette, zip, or CD-ROM with two hardcopies and retain a copy for yourself. Manuscripts must conform to the journal style and should be submitted in the final version containing all revisions. They also have to be approved by all co-authors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities if necessary. Upon acceptance of your manuscript, you will receive a Manuscript Submission form to be returned to Mrs. Battenfeld (see 5.) within five days. This form includes, among other items, your complete correspondence address, the copyright transfer agreement, and the guidelines for colour print charges.
The manuscript will be reviewed by independent referees who will be assigned by the editor or the respective subject-editors according to the subject area.
Your manuscript will be destroyed three months after publication. Only appropriately marked originals will be returned. The publisher cannot be held responsible for any damage or loss through the post.
3. REQUIREMENTS FOR MANUSCRIPTS
3.1. Format
Manuscripts should be submitted in duplicate typewritten on one side only, with a left-hand margin of 4 cm and double-spaced. The first page should include the institute where the research work has been made, the title, first name and surname of the author(s), their postal address, and a short, well-structured summary. Please also provide the e-mail address of the corresponding author. Original articles should be structured in: Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowledgements, and References cited. Short Communications do not need such structuring.
The manuscript comprises a printout of the text and a list of all figures and tables with their captions and titles on a separate piece of paper. We ask that you convey the essential information within the first 60 characters of the captions to accommodate the online edition. Each figure, table, and bibliographic entry must have a reference in the text. For all figures please include reproducible artwork (marked with the author's name, short title, and figure number). Any corrections requested by the reviewer should already be integrated into the file.
The data carriers (diskette, etc.) must be PC/Windows-compatible and may not contain any files other than those for the current manuscript. Please include a list of the files, noting the file name, the computer program and its version number. Please do not import the figures into the text file. The text should be prepared using standard software (Microsoft Word, Word Perfect) or saved in rtf format; do not use automated or manual hyphenation. Please do not include footnotes.
For further information please consult:
www.blackwell-science.com/elecmed/authors.htm.
3.2. Length
Including illustrations, tables, and references, original contributions should not exceed 20 manuscript pages or 30,000 characters (excluding spaces). Review articles should not exceed 25 manuscript pages (37,000 characters) and short communications are limited to 6 manuscript pages (9,000 characters), all double-spaced. Figures and tables must be limited to an essential minimum.
3.3. Units and Abbreviations
SI-units should be used wherever possible. If other units and non-standard abbreviations cannot be avoided they should be defined at first mention.
3.4. Illustrations and Tables
Figures should be saved in a neutral data format such as TIFF or EPS, and a printout should always be included. Powerpoint and Word graphics are unsuitable for reproduction. Please do not use any pixel-oriented programmes. Scanned figures (only in TIFF format) should have a resolution of 300 dpi (halftone) or 600 to 1200 dpi (line drawings) in relation to the reproduction size. Only high-contrast photographic material is suitable for reproduction. Please submit the data for figures in black and white. However, colour photos can be reproduced in black and white (with a possible loss of contrast). Figures printed in colour are subject to an added charge. Colour print charges are explained on the manuscript submission form. Colour graphics should be created using the CMYK colour palette (print colours), not RGB (monitor colours). There is a charge for alterations to figures when carried out by the publisher.
Please note that figures will generally be reduced to fit within the column-width or the print area. This means that numbering and lettering must still be readable when reduced (e.g. maps) and that the scale might not correspond with the original (microscopic pictures), thereby invalidating references to scale in the text. If a figure is to be cropped, please mark the lines on a photocopy or tracing paper. Printouts should be made with a laserprinter at the highest resolution (> 600 dpi). If artwork is to be scanned, line drawings should only be contour drawings without halftones (shades of grey). Please do not use patterns; rough hatching is possible.
Graphs with an x and y axis should not be enclosed in frames; only 2-dimensional representations, please. Do not forget the labels and units. Captions for the figures should give a precise description of the content and should not be repeated within the figure.
Tables should be created using the table function.
3.5. References
Citations should be kept to a minimum. Only works cited in the text should be included in the reference list. References must be listed in alphabetical order (according to authors), and standard abbreviations for journals and books must be employed. Examples are as follows:
Journals: Ahne, W., 1980: Occurrence of Infectious Pancreatic Necrosis (IPN) in different fish species. Berl. M黱ch. Tier鋜ztl. Wschr. 93,14-16.
Books or other non-serial publications: Koch, W.; Bank, O.; Jens, G., 1982: Fischzucht, 5., vollst. neu bearb. Aufl., Hamburg und Berlin: Paul Parey, pp 58-72.
Cunningham, Z. P., 1978: Trends in cattle production and breeding in Western Europe. In: Optimum methods of cattle for increasing meat and dairy production. Eds: H. Jasiorowski; R. Rudzka, Warsaw, Poland. pp. 23-45.
4. COPYRIGHT
Publication in the journal can only take place under the condition, that the manuscript has not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere.

5. PROOF CORRECTION AND OFFPRINTS
Proofs will be sent via e-mail as an Acrobat PDF (portable document format) file. The e-mail server must be able to accept attachments up to 4 MB in size. Acrobat Reader will be required in order to read this file. This software can be downloaded (free of charge) from the following Web site:
