IJPRBA is an international Quarterly online open access journal directed towards the needs of academic and industrial analysis by publishing original research articles, reviews and Short Communications.

It covers the interdisciplinary aspects of analysis in the pharmaceutical, biomedical and clinical sciences, including

All articles are subjected to Double blind peer review and the receipt of the manuscripts will be acknowledged through E-mail.

Review process of the submitted articles will be done within 3 days after the date of submission and the accepted articles will be published in the upcoming issue.

International Journal of Pharmaceutical Research and Biomedical Analysis has moved to an online submission and review system. Manuscripts should be submitted online at http://www.ijprba.com  and the instructions on the website should be closely followed.

Authors may submit manuscripts and track their progress through to final decision. Reviewers can download manuscripts and submit their reports to the Managing Editors.

Authors should prepare their manuscripts according to the instructions given:

Manuscripts which do not follow the format and style of the journal may be returned to the authors for revision or will be rejected.

Manuscripts should be written in clear and concise English.

 Manuscripts should be prepared as

Microsoft word documents in Times New Roman (font size should be 12) on A4 size with a margin of 2.5 cm of all four sides. The manuscript should be typed double-spaced.

All figures and tables should be placed at the end of the text.

 TYPES OF PAPERS

 IJPRBA welcomes submissions of full-length reviews, original research papers and Short communication.

 Review Articles:Review articles should be about 15 pages and contain up-to-date information providing comprehensive coverage of relevant literature. Review articles should preferably be written by scientists who have in-depth knowledge of the topic. All format requirements are similar to those applicable to Research papers. Review Articles need not be divided into sections such as Materials and methods, and Results and discussion, but should definitely have an abstract and introduction.

 Full Length Research Papers: These papers should describe in detail original and important stages of work in the fields covered by the IJPRBA.

 Short Communications: These should describe complete and original research work whose length and/or importance do not justify a full-length paper. The format is the same as that for a full-length Research Paper. The approximate length should be 10 pages of double-spaced type- script, including Tables and Figures, Keywords are essential.

 RESEARCH PAPERS:

It should be arranged into the following sections:

(1) Title page, (2) Abstract and Key words, (3) Introduction, (4) Materials and Methods, (5) Results & Discussion, (6) Conclusion, (7) Acknowledgement (8) References, (9) Tables and (10)Figures.

(For the units of measurement, the use of the International System of Units (SI) is recommended)

 Title page:

It should contain, name of author(s) and an(*) asterisk placed after the name of the corresponding author, address (es) of the institution(s) at which the work was performed, each author's affiliation and a footnote including the complete mailing address, telephone number, e-mail address for the corresponding author.

Abstract:

It should give the brief idea of Research Work and should not exceed more than 200 -300 words.

Keywords:

It should have 6-8 keywords related to the work.

 Introduction:

It should provide sufficient background information for the reader to understand and evaluate the results of the present study without referring to previous publications on the same topic.

Results should be described as concisely as possible in one of the following ways: text, table(s), or figure(s). Avoid extensive use of graphs to present data that might be more concisely or more comprehensively presented in the figures or tables. The reproducibility and statistical significance of measurements, material or biological data, must be included where relevant. The discussion should provide an interpretation of the results and their significance with regard to previously published work. There should not be any significant repetition of the experimental procedures or reiteration of the introduction.

 Conclusion:

A short, paragraph summarizing the most important findings of the research is required.

 Acknowledgments:

The source of any financial support, gifts, technical assistance and advice received for the work being published must be indicated in the Acknowledgments section.

 References: The references should be cited at the end of the manuscript in the order of their appearance in the body of text. Must be in numerical in text as well as reference numbers should in [5] bracket)
