Abstract submission guidelines :

In order to make the abstract as informative as possible, please include a brief statement of the purpose of the study, the method used, the result observed, and the conclusions based upon the results. It is inadequate to state “The results will be discussed” or “The data will be presented”. You may subtitle the paragraphs in bold format in the following order: Background, Method, Results, and Conclusion.

The abstract title and body text should only include pharmacopeia names printed in lower case. Trade names are not allowed. Non-proprietary (generic) names of drugs, written in lower case, are required at the first place a drug is mentioned. References, credits or the authors’ academic degrees or grant support must not be included in the abstract. Standard abbreviations may be employed in the text. Place special or unusual abbreviations in parentheses after the full wording at the first time it appears in the body of the text.

It is the author’s responsibility to submit a correct abstract. Any errors in spelling, grammar, or scientific fact will be reproduced as typed by the author.

Please note that each year a number of abstracts are rejected because they contain no data or the English is unacceptable. Changes to abstracts can only be accepted until the deadline using the Personal Page.
