- Include your high-resolution figures, schemes, and table tables after reference section with figure legends. Please make sure that each figure is clearly labelled with its number
- Any supplementary data MUST be saved as a separate file from the main manuscript file
- We request our Authors to use "Plagiarism Checking software’s" to check plagiarism prior to submission as a preliminary step. We encourage the authors to limit the similarity index to be below 15% of their submissions and beyond that limit will be rejected.

- Names, institutes and email addresses of at least four suggested referees. They should be scientists working independently (i.e. not a collaborator) in areas comparable to your own who have relevant proficiency, such as those included in your reference list.
