Manuscripts must be written whether in Bahasa Indonesia or in English. Authors make sure there are no typographical errors in the manuscript. Manuscripts must be typed in Microsoft Word 2007, using Times New Roman front at 12 points, 1,5 spaced in A4 size page with 3 cm margin on all sides. All lines and pages should be numbered consecutively.

The manuscript should be organized as follows:

Title Page: The title page should contain (i) a concise and informative full title, (ii) the name(s) of the author (s), (iii) the full postal address (es) of the institution(s) where the work was carried out, (iv) the name and E-mail of the corresponding author.

Abstract: This should not be more than 200 words, in a structured format, and its purpose is to summarize the main aims, results and conclusions in such a way that they could be understood by any interested reader and not only experts in the subject, and could be used by an abstracting journal. References to published or unpublished work and use of abbreviations should be avoided.

The structured abstract of a research article has four parts: the major objectives, methods, results, and conclusion. The abstract is followed by three to five keywords to be used for subject indexing.

Introduction: This should be as short as possible, and should simply serve to introduce the reader to the purpose and significance of the work described. It should neither be a mini-review nor should it be so bald as to be uninformative. When making general statements, reference should be made to recent reviews, and specific references should be cited only if they are particularly relevant.

Materials and Methods: This section must contain a clear description or specific original reference for all biological, analytical, and statistical procedures. All modification of the procedures must be explained clearly, so that the methods can be done by other scientist. Diets, animals (breed, sex, age, body weight), surgical techniques (if available), data measurements and statistical models should be described clearly. Information regarding the brand names, company names (manufacturer) and locations for all equipment and chemical (commercial products) used in the research, must be provided.

Results and Discussion: These should be confined to a factual account of the actual results obtained. Discussion and reference to other work should be left to the discussion.

Conclusion: Conclusion highlights the substantion of the results of the research and must be written shortly and concisely.

Acknowledgment: This gives an appreciation to institution or person who help in research and report writing and also describes the source of research fund use in the research.

References. References must be prepared according to Harvard style. All citations in the text should refer to:

1. Single author: the author's name (without initials, unless there is ambiguity) and the year of publication;
2. Two authors: both authors' names and the year of publication;
3. Three or more authors: first author's name followed by 'et al.' and the year of publication.

Citations may be made directly (or parenthetically). Groups of references can be listed either first alphabetically, then chronologically, or vice versa.

examples: 'as demonstrated (Allan, 2000a, 2000b, 1999; Allan and Jones, 1999)…. Or, as demonstrated (Jones, 1999; Allan, 2000)… Kramer et al. (2010) have recently shown …'

List: References should be arranged first alphabetically and then further sorted chronologically if necessary. More than one reference from the same author(s) in the same year must be identified by the letters 'a', 'b', 'c', etc., placed after the year of publication.
