APPLIED MICROBIOLOGY
INSTRUCTIONS TO AUTHORS
Correspondence. Submit manuscripts in duplicate(original and one carbon) to ASM Publications Office,1913 I St., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20006.General policy. Any manuscript submitted must be
a report of unpublished original research, which is notbseing considered for publication elsewhere. Eachmanuscript should present the results of an inde-pendent, cohesive study; "series" papers are discour-aged.The "editorial style" of Applied Microbiology essen-
tially follows the CBE Style Manual (3rd ed., AIBS,1972). Genetics symbols should essentially follow therecommendations of Demerec et al. (Genetics 54:61,1966). Biochemical abbreviations and nomenclatureshould essentially follow "Biochemical Nomencla-ture" in Handbook of Biochemistry (2nd ed., 1970, H.A. Sober, ed., The Chemical Rubber Co., Cleveland,p. A4-A24). Normally, abbreviations (except those ofstandard units of measurement and symbols of theelements) should be defined and introduced paren-thetically at first use in the text. Enzyme activity shouldhe expressed in terms of international units (EnzymeNomenclature, Elsevier Publishing Co., 1972), and theEC number should be given parenthetically at first usein the text. In expressing lengths, weights, and vol-umes, the prefixes nano (n) and pico (p) should beused instead of millimicro (mA) and micromicro (gut).Express lengths in nanometers (nm; 10-9 m) or in mi-crometers (,Am; 10-6 m) instead of millimicrons (mg;10- m), microns (,s; 10-6 m), or Angstroms (A;10-1i m). Express parts per million (ppm) as micro-grams per milliliter (,gg/ml), micrograms per gram(;&g/g), or microliters per liter (,dliters/liter), as ap-propriate. In general, measurements should be ex-pressed in terms of standard international metric units.Applied Microbiology reserves the privilege of editingmanuscripts to make them conform with the adoptedstyle.Form of manuscript. All parts of the manuscript
should be typed double-space or, preferably, triple-space. Most manuscripts can and should be dividedinto the following sections: Abstract, Introduction,Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, Acknowl-edgements, and Literature Cited. Only one weight ofheading (paragraph lead-in) should be used withineach section.
Title. A single statement of the subject of a paperis preferred to a main title-subtitle arrangement. Ashort version of the title (no more than 46 charactersand spaces) should be supplied for use as a runninghead.
Abstract. An Abstract appears at the beginning ofeach paper. The Abstract should not exceed 250words.
Literature Cited. In the text, references are cited bynumber. The Literature Cited section should be typedin alphabetical order, by first author, and numbered.Names of journals are abbreviated according toBibliographic Guide for Editors & Authors (AmericanChemical Society, 1974). Literature citations shouldbe restricted to closely pertinent papers. Citations ofabstracts, theses, "unpublished data," "personal com-
munications," and "in press" will not be accepted inthe Literature Cited.
Tables. Each table should be typed on a separatepage. The data should be arranged so that columns oflike material read down, not across. The headingsshould be sufficiently clear so that the meaning of thedata will be understandable without reference to thetext. Explanatory footnotes are permitted, but detaileddescriptions of the experiments are not. The materialsand methods used to gain the data should properlyremain in the section of that name.
Figures. A complete set of figures, preferably glossyphotographs, should accompany each of the twocopies of the manuscript. Graphs (submit as photo-graphs) should be finished drawings not needingfurther artwork or type-setting. Absolutely no partof a graph should be typewritten (except the legend,which should be typed on a separate page). Each fig-ure should be numbered and should include the nameof the author, either in the margin or on the back(marked lightly with a soft pencil). All letteringshould be done with a lettering set. Most graphswill be reduced to 6.6 cm in width, and all elementsin the drawing should be prepared to withstand thisreduction. The legend of the figure should provideenough information so that the figure is understand-able without reference to the text. Experimental de-tails from Materials and Methods should not berepeated in figure legends.Nomenclature of microorganisms. In general, the
nomenclature for bacteria presented in Bergey'sManual of Determinative Bacteriology (8th ed., 1974)is used. If an author challenges this nomenclature,his own judgment will be followed, but the name inBergey's Manual should follow in parentheses thefirst time the name is used in the text and in theAbstract. Papers which include extensive taxonomicmaterial (e.g., description of new taxa) will not bepublished in this journal. The proper place for pub-lication of taxonomic material is the InternationalJournal of Systematic Bacteriology (IJSB), which ispublished by the ASM for the International Associa-tion of Microbiological Societies. If the main thrustof such a paper is not taxonomy, the paper should bedivided, the taxonomy portion being submitted toIJSB and the other portion to this journal.
Notes. The accepted form for Notes is somewhatdifferent from the foregoing. Contributors shouldconsult a recent issue of Applied Microbiology forstyle. Notes should not exceed 500 words. The ab-stract should not exceed 25 words.
Copyright. Once a paper has been published inApplied Microbiology, which is a copyrighted publica-tion, the legal ownership of all parts of the paper, in-cluding the illustrations, has passed from the authorto ASM. If the same author, or any author, wishes torepublish material previously published in AppliedMicrobiology, he must first receive written permissionfrom ASM.
Reprints. Reprints (in multiples of 100) may be pur-chased by contributors. A table showing the cost ofreprints, and an order form, will be sent with the proof.
