GUIDANCE FOR AUTHORS

Submissions must be made online on our website https://bestjournal.untad.ac.id/index.php/ejurnalfmipa/submission/wizard. Notifications will be sent to the author's e-mail address after sending. The letter shows that we have received your shipment and not as a journal admission decision.

Natural Sciences: Journal of Science and Technology publishes original research articles, reviews and scientific notes or short communications in the fields of science and technology. It is the author’s responsibility to ensure that the manuscript is written in appropriate English. Non-English-speaking authors are strongly encouraged to consult a professional proof-reading service prior to submission. The editorial board maintains the option of returning, before evaluation, manuscripts which do not meet the instructions and/or acceptable standards of English.

Original articles: they should be no longer that ten pages as a rule or no more than 8.000 words (including tables and picture), including references, tables and figures (see ‘Manuscript structure’ for more information). The number of references should not exceed 60.

Review articles: Their length is limited to fifteen pages or about 60,000 characters, spaces excluded but all items included (text, references, tables, figures...). The usual division into ‘materials and methods, results and discussion’ may be replaced by a more adapted structure.

Short communications: Natural Sciences: Journal of Science and Technology publishes brief notes or short communications to report information and observation for which replication is not possible or additional data cannot be easily obtained and which have an exceptional scientific interest and should be written at least 2.000 words.

Authors must state the sentence that the paper is the result of original research and has not been published or sent to other journals. Without this sentence, the submission will be rejected.
