![]() ![]() Tables, figures, and schemes should be embedded in the text or be included right after the references on separate pages (one each per page). The text of a research manuscript should be divided into the following sections: Introduction, Results and Discussion, Conclusions, Materials and Methods/Experimental, Acknowledgements (Funding), Conflict of Interest, and References as appropriate for the specific manuscript type. We reject manuscripts with good science that are poorly written. Using clear and concise English will help the editors and the reviewers concentrate on the scientific merit of the manuscript and thus smooth the peer review process. Abbreviations, except for very common ones, must be defined the first time they are used and a list supplied with the manuscript. Ensure that all special characters are presented in the body of the text and do not use graphics. Use the automatic page numbering function to number all the pages. Use plain font 12 point Times New Roman and symbols (use internationally accepted signs and symbols for units, SI units). ![]() The text must be in a single-column format and lines with double space. General Considerations and types of manuscriptsĪuthors are strongly encouraged to provide their manuscript in an electronic format. RULE 8: The manuscripts contains poor English or difficult to read language. RULE 7: The manuscript does not follow the formatting provided in this document. RULE 6: Computer QSAR/modeling manuscripts that lack experimental biological validation of the proposed model(s). RULE 5: Manuscripts that simply discuss antioxidant properties of phenols or other compounds known to possess antioxidant effects. RULE 4: The manuscript is too focused on a non-chemical subject (e.g., pharmacology, analytical studies of active ingredients, analytical studies of drug concentrations (ADME is suitable), etc. RULE 3: The botanical source is not clearly identified, authenticated, or documented (voucher specimen). ![]() RULE 2: The manuscript is too preliminary (e.g., data without comparison to a reference, or without a positive control). ![]() RULE 1: The manuscript does not fall into any of the areas of interest of the Journal. Violation of any of the following rules will result in an immediate rejection: Biological activity that is low and insufficient to generate meaningful structure activity relationship.Computational work that simply discusses the docking, molecular modeling, QSAR, SAR, and computational studies of bioactive interactions without validation of the method (with experimental data).Synthetic work in which the spectroscopic characterization is not complete (e.g., 1H and 13C NMR, HRMS, CHN, UV, IR, etc.).Uncritical ethnopharmacological investigations, where a list of plants and their use are simply reported.antioxidant properties of phenolic or antibacterial activity of essential oils or antioxidant properties of metals such as iron, copper, etc.). Unexceptional and predictable bioactivity (e.g.Biological activity on crude extracts that have not been characterized by analysis of their secondary metabolites (HPLC, 1H and 13C NMR including 2D NMR).Critical reviews of the historical, clinical, and legal status of medicinal agents, and accounts on topical issues.Ĭontributions reporting the following are not normally considered for publication:.Chemistry and biochemistry of bioactive natural products of plant origin.Identification of targets and mechanism of activity of bioactive compounds.Characterization of active ingredients of medicinal plants and identification of bioactivity in plant extracts.Docking, molecular modeling, and computational studies of bioactive interactions.Design, synthesis, and structure-activity relationships of bioactive compounds.The Journal publishes original contributions in the following major areas: The Journal is also dedicated to medicinal plants and to bioactive natural products of plant, fungal, mammalian, and aquatic origin. Studies will be welcomed that increase our understanding of biochemical interactions between drug molecules, ions, free radicals, and sterically important sections of macromolecular targets. Articles are sought which emphasize research in chemical biological relationships, especially with respect to: structure-activity relationships, investigations of biochemical and pharmacological targets of drug action, and correlations of structures with the mode of action of biologically active compounds. Medicinal Chemistry Research is a journal for the prompt disclosure of novel experimental achievements in many facets of drug design, drug discovery, and the elucidation of mechanisms of action of biologically active compounds. ![]()
