1. First degree section titles should be bold, the first letter of the words should be capital and left aligned (Introduction, Materials and Methods, Discussion)
2. Second-degree headings should be bold and the first letter of the words should be indented 1.25 cm. (Eg; Immunological Analysis)
3. Third degree section titles should be bold and the first letter of the first word should be capital, the others should be lowercase, italic, 1.25 cm indented (For example; Lysozyme activity).

Units of measure: All must be in SI units. A single gap should be left between the number and the unit (4 kg / ha, 100 kPa, 22 ° C). As an exception, spaces should not be included in angular definitions, minutes, seconds and percentage representation (10 °, 45ʾ, 60 ", %29). The liter abbreviation is "L", the gram abbreviation is "g".

Use of Species Names: Species names should be italicized. After first usage, the genus name should be abbreviated to its initial.

Use of Decimal Numbers: Decimal numbers should be separated by points, not by commas. Correct: 32.15; Incorrect: 32,15.
