Manuscripts should be of letter quality, in double spacing throughout, using only one side of the paper. Submission of a paper to Biofouling will be taken to imply that it represents original work not previously published, that it is not being considered elsewhere for publication, and that if accepted for publication it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in any language, without the consent of the editor and Publisher. If previously published tables or illustrations or more than 200 words of text are to be included, then the copyright holder's permission should be obtained. Copies of any such permission letters must accompany the manuscript. Units, symbols and abbreviations should be as in Planta and authors should consult the list printed in the first issue of each volume of that journal.
SI units are preferred.
Drugs mentioned by their trade or common name must be identified by their proper chemical name. Authors names and affiliations should appear exactly as required in the final paper and the corresponding author should be indicated with a full postal address, fax number, and email address. There should also be up to six indexing key words or phrases. First, second and third level headings can be differentiated by marking them with A, B or C respectively in the margin by the heading. Headings should be separated from the main body of the text by one line.
