Avoid a detailed literature survey or a summary of the results. Give in the end of Introduction.

- Methods

Methods include the design, population, sample, data sources, techniques/instruments of data collection and data analysis procedures. Methods should make readers be able to reproduce the experiment. Provide sufficient detail to allow the work to be reproduced. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference: only relevant modifications should be described. Do not repeat the details of established methods.

Please highlight differences between your results or findings and the previous publications by other researchers. Tables or figures are put in Results no more than six.

Tables are sequentially numbered with the table title and number above the table. Tables should be centered in the column OR on the page. Tables should be followed by a line space (12pt). Elements of a table should be single-spaced, however double spacing can be used to show groupings of data or to separate parts within the table.  Table headings should be in 10pt bold.

In discussion, it is the most important section of your article. Here you get the chance to sell your data. Make the discussion corresponding to the results, but do not reiterate the results. Often should begin with a summary of the main scientific findings (not experimental results). 

The following components should be covered in discussion: How do your results relate to the original question or objectives outlined in the Introduction section (what)? Do you provide interpretation scientifically for each of your results or findings presented (why)? Are your results consistent with what other investigators have reported (what else)? Or are there any differences?

- Conclusions and recommendations

Conclusions should answer the objectives of research. Tells how your work advances the field from the present state of knowledge. Without clear Conclusions, reviewers and readers will find it difficult to judge the work, and whether it merits publication in the journal. Do not repeat the Abstract, or just list experimental results. Provide a clear scientific justification for your work and indicate possible applications and extensions. You should also suggest future experiments and/or point out those that are underway.

Recommendations written with the right steps will be more meaningful than general recommendations. Remember that recommendations must be practical, meaning they can be implemented. Give advice on what policies should be taken. Convey what steps should be taken, and what are the consequences in terms of resources (including funding), who acts as what, and who should take the lead in overcoming the problem, and so on. Do not let, after reading the recommendations section, the reader still wonders, 'Then how?'

This conclusion should be provided as a paragraph. You should also suggest future experiments and/or point out those that are underway.
