For all online submissions, please provide soft copies of all the materials (main text in MS Word or Tex/LaTeX), figures / illustrations in TIFF, PDF or JPEG, and chemical structures drawn in ChemDraw (CDX) / ISISDraw (TGF) as separate files, while a PDF version of the entire manuscript must also be included, embedded with all the figures / illustrations / tables / chemical structures etc. It is advisable that the document files related to a manuscript submission should always have the name of the corresponding author as part of the file name, i.e., Cilli MS text.doc”, “Cilli MS Figure 1 etc.
The journal publishes peer-reviewed original letters, research articles and full-length / mini-review articles written in English. Single topic/thematic issues may also be considered for publication.
These special issues are peer-reviewed and may contain invited or uninvited review/mini-review articles. A Single Topic Issue Editor will offer a short perspective and co-ordinate the solicitation of manuscripts between 3-5 (for a mini-thematic Issue) to 6-10 (for full-length thematic Issue) from leading scientists. Authors interested in editing a single topic issue in an emerging field of enzyme inhibition may submit their proposal to the Editor-in-Chief at cei@benthamscience.net for consideration.
Authors should also provide a ‘running title’. Title, running title, byline, correspondent footnote and key words should be written as presented in the original manuscript.
The main text should begin on a separate page and should be divided into title page, abstract and the main text. The text may be subdivided further according to the areas to be discussed, which should be followed by the Acknowledgements and Reference sections. For Research Articles the manuscript should begin with the title page and abstract followed by the main text, which must be structured into separate sections as Introduction, Material and Methods, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Ethics Approval and Consent to Participate, Human and Animal Rights, Conflict of Interest, Acknowledgements and References. The Review Article should mention any previous important old and recent reviews in the field and contain a comprehensive discussion starting with the general background of the field. It should then go on to discuss the salient features of recent developments. The authors should avoid presenting material which has already been published in a previous review. The authors are advised to present and discuss their observations in brief. The manuscript style must be uniform throughout the text and 10 pt Times New Roman fonts should be used. The full term for an abbreviation should precede its first appearance in the text unless it is a standard unit of measurement. The reference numbers should be given in square brackets in the text. Italics should be used for Binomial names of organisms (Genus and Species), for emphasis and for unfamiliar words or phrases. Non-assimilated words from Latin or other languages should also be italicized e.g. per se, et al. etc.
All authors must strictly follow the guidelines below for preparing illustrations for publication in Current Enzyme Inhibition. If the figures are found to be sub-standard, then the manuscripts will be rejected.
Optimized files optimized for screen use (like GIF, BMP, PICT, WPG); because of the low resolution.
Authors will receive page proofs of their accepted paper before publications. To avoid delays in publication, proofs should be checked immediately for typographical errors and returned within 48 hours. Major changes are not acceptable at the proof stage. In case of inability to send corrections within 48 hours due to some reason, the author(s) must at least send an acknowledgement on receiving the galley proofs otherwise article will be published exactly as received and the publishers will not be responsible for any error occurring in the published manuscript.
