An International Scientific Journal Covering Research on Animal Nutrition, Feeding and TechnologyAnimal Feed Science and Technology is a unique journal publishing scientific papers of international interest focusing on animal feeds and their feeding.Papers describing research on feed for ruminants and non-ruminants, including poultry, horses, companion animals and aquatic animals, are welcome.The journal covers the following areas:Nutritive value of feeds (e.g., assessment, improvement)Methods of conserving and processing feeds that affect their nutritional valueAgronomic and climatic factors influencing the nutritive value of feedsUtilization of feeds and the improvement of suchMetabolic, production, reproduction and health responses, as well as potential environmental impacts, of diet inputs and feed technologies (e.g., feeds, feed additives, feed components, mycotoxins)Mathematical models relating directly to animal-feed interactionsAnalytical and experimental methods for feed evaluationEnvironmental impacts of feed technologies in animal productionThe journal does not encourage papers with emphasis on animal products, molecular biology, genetics or management, or the regulatory or legal aspects of feeds as well as animal production studies with a focus on animal nutrition that do not have a direct link to a feed or feed technology.Manuscripts must be prepared in accordance with the journal's Guide for Authors. Before preparing their manuscript, it is suggested that authors examine the following editorials by the Editors-in-Chief:Editorial on terminology and analytical methods (Anim. Feed Sci. Technol. 118 (2005) 181-186) Editorial on experimental design and statistical criteria (Anim. Feed Sci. Technol. 129 (2006) 1-11) Editorial on general suggestions and guidelines (Anim. Feed Sci. Technol. 134 (2007) 181-188) Editors comments on plagiarism (Anim. Feed Sci. Technol. 154 (2009) 292-293) Editorial on review techniques and responding on editorial comments (Anim. Feed Sci. Technol. 155 (2010) 81-85) Editorial on use of replicates in statistical analyses in papers submitted for publication in Animal Feed Science and Technology (Anim. Feed Sci. Technol. 171 (2012) 1-5)For an example of a sample manuscript click here.
Livestock Science promotes the sound development of the livestock sector by publishing original, peer-reviewed research and review articles covering all aspects of the broad field of animal production and animal science. The journal welcomes submissions on the avant-garde areas of animal genetics, breeding, growth, reproduction, nutrition, physiology, and behaviour in addition to genetic resources, welfare, ethics, health, management and production systems. The high-quality content of this journal reflects the truly international nature of this broad area of research. Submissions focusing on diagnosis, disease treatments and epidemiology are not welcomed and works entirely based on either laboratory work or laboratory animals are only rarely considered. Papers presenting reviews and meta-analyses must ensure that they provide new insights to our readers. When the novelty of the research presented (including meta-analyses) is due to the methods used, authors are encouraged to classify their works as either Short Communications or Technical Notes.  Although the use of commercial compounds is allowed, they must not be the basis of the research presented. Our board does not consider papers based on the use of drugs in experiments, such as antibiotics in animal nutrition or behaviour modifiers in animal breeding.
Reproductive Biology is an international, quarterly, peer-reviewed journal publishing high quality original research articles, short communication, technical notes, reviews and mini-reviews dealing with all aspects of reproduction.Reproductive Biology covers a broad scope of reproductive biology and medicine, and reproductive translational research articles, providing a platform for scientific exchange of knowledge. The journal publishes state-of-the-art articles on reproductive physiology, endocrinology and reproductive immunology, including endocrine-related cancers, obstetrics and gynecology, andrology, infertility, embryology, assisted reproduction, contraception, animal breeding and animal reproduction (with a special emphasis to domestic, large and small, animals).An important part of the Journal's mission is to promote its translational character, bringing together and bridging studies related to human medicine and research on animals, including domestic animal species, in the common sense of One Health. Papers from basic and clinical research will be considered. Descriptive studies will be considered only when they contribute to enhancing translational comprehension.Reproductive Biology is the official journal of the Society for Biology of Reproduction and the Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research of Polish Academy of Sciences in Olsztyn, Poland.
