FREE RADICAL RESEARCH

Free Radical Research aims to publish high-quality research papers, hypotheses and reviews in all areas in the fields of:? Free radicals and other reactive species in biological, clinical, environmental and other systems ? Redox signalling ? Antioxidants, including diet-derived antioxidants and other relevant aspects of human nutrition ? Oxidative damage, mechanisms and measurement Manuscripts should contribute a significant advance to the field, supported by clearly-presented data and statistical analysis. Manuscripts should be as concise as possible subject to the need to present relevant background, data and methods. Reviewers are strongly encouraged to identify areas of the manuscript that could be shortened. FRR discourages papers that are purely descriptive (e.g. a catalogue of changes in antioxidant levels in a human disease or after administering a toxin to an animal). We also discourage ‘screening’ papers, such as the use of ‘total antioxidant activity’ assays to compare the antioxidant activities of plant extracts or herbal medicines including traditional medicines.

自由基研究的目的是发表高质量的研究论文，假设和评论在各个领域在以下领域:?生物、临床、环境和其他系统中的自由基和其他活性物质?氧化还原信号?抗氧化剂，包括饮食衍生的抗氧化剂和人类营养的其他相关方面?氧化损伤、机制和测量手稿应在明确提出的数据和统计分析的支持下，对该领域作出重大进展。稿件应尽量简明扼要，但须提供有关的背景资料、数据和方法。强烈建议审稿人找出可以缩短的部分。FRR不鼓励纯描述性的论文(例如，人类疾病或给动物注射毒素后抗氧化水平变化的目录)。我们也不鼓励“筛选”论文，比如使用“总抗氧化活性”测试来比较植物提取物或包括传统药物在内的草药的抗氧化活性。
