Organization of Manuscript
1. Title of Article
The title should be brief, concise, clear, informative, and no longer than 14 words. It should present an interesting issue to be studied and avoid unnecessary foreign terms. The location of the study does not need to be mentioned in the title, but may be explained in the method section.
2. Abstract and Keywords
The abstract should be written in English and contain approximately 100–200 words. It should briefly present the purpose of the research, methods, results, discussion, and conclusions. Avoid references and uncommon abbreviations. Keywords should consist of three to five words or phrases, arranged alphabetically and separated by semicolons.
3. Introduction
The introduction should provide adequate background, a concise review of relevant literature, the limitations of previous research, the gap to be addressed, and the scientific merit or novelty of the article. The objectives of the work should be stated clearly at the end of the introduction.
4. Method
The method section should provide sufficient detail so that readers are able to reproduce the study. Previously published methods may be cited, with only relevant modifications described.
5. Results and Discussion
Results should be presented clearly and concisely, focusing on the main scientific findings rather than excessive raw data. The discussion should explain the significance of the findings, compare them with previous studies, and provide a scientific interpretation of how the findings relate to the objectives and research questions.
6. Conclusions
Conclusions should directly answer the objectives of the research and indicate how the work advances the field. Authors are encouraged to provide a clear scientific justification, indicate possible applications, and suggest future directions for study.
7. References
Only works cited in the manuscript should be included in the references section. References should preferably be taken from publications issued within the last 10 years, with at least 60% derived from journal sources, especially internationally recognized journals. References must be listed alphabetically by the surname of the author and year of publication.
