Journal Guide

Lab Animal is a peer-reviewed journal for professionals in animal research, emphasizing proper management and care.Editorial features include: * Facility design * Transgenics * New animal models * Lab animal care and nutrition * Pain management * Environmental enrichment * Genetics * Toxicology * Health monitoring and diagnostics * New lab equipment * Regulations/guidelines * Education, training, and career paths (including job listings) * Personnel and facility management * Preparing for and avoiding emergenciesLab Animal publishes timely and informative editorial content reaching both the academic world and applied research industries involved in genetic engineering, human and animal therapeutics, and pharmaceutical drug discovery. * AGRICOLA * Index Medicus/MEDLINE * ISI's Focus on: Veterinary ScienceThe correct abbreviation for abstracting and indexing purposes is Lab Anim. (NY).ISSN and EISSNThe international standard serial number (ISSN) for Lab Animal is 0093-7355, and the electronic international standard serial number (EISSN) is 1548-4475.

Providing a unique perspective, this international journal of laboratory animal science and welfare publishes peer-reviewed original papers and reviews on all aspects of the use of animals in biomedical research. Particular emphasis is given to research that reduces the number of animals used or which replaces animal models with in vitro alternatives, leading to improvements in the welfare or well-being of the animals used.

Mammal Review covers all aspects of mammalian biology and ecology. We particularly welcome hypothesis-driven analytical and systematic reviews of current theoretical and applied research on mammals, meta-analyses, practical assessments of techniques for studying mammals and large-scale considerations of the status, conservation and management of mammals. As well as reviews, comments, in which authors respond to papers in Mammal Review, and short communications, in which original research or important new methods are described, are published. Authors may consult the Editor-in-Chief about potential contributions or submit unsolicited papers. The journal is the official scientific periodical of the Mammal Society.

Mammalia is a quarterly journal devoted to the inventory, analysis and interpretation of mammalian diversity. It publishes original results on all aspects of the systematics (comparative, functional and evolutionary morphology; morphometrics, phylogeny; biogeography; taxonomy and nomenclature) and biology (physiology, behaviour comparative anatomy) of mammals with a strong focus on ecology, including biodiversity, distribution habitats, competition and conservation.

Mammalian Biology (formerly Zeitschrift für Säugetierkunde) is an international scientific journal edited by the http://www.mammalianbiology.org/Deutsche Gesellschaft für Säugetierkunde (German Society for Mammalian Biology). The journal is devoted to the publication of research on mammals. Its scope covers all aspects of mammalian biology, such as anatomy, morphology, palaeontology, taxonomy, systematics, molecular biology, physiology, neurobiology, ethology, genetics, reproduction, development, evolutionary biology, domestication, ecology, wildlife biology and diseases, conservation biology, and the biology of zoo mammals.

To qualify for publication, a manuscript must contribute to the understanding of mammalian biology by presenting either new and original research data (as a full article or in short communication format) or a thorough review of a particular topic of mammalogical research. Investigations using mammals merely as models or emphasizing experimental or veterinary aspects are of interest only if they are of substantial relevance to mammalogists. Studies testing explicitly formulated hypotheses are preferred to those presenting primarily descriptive results.

At present, one volume consisting of six issues is published each year. Due to its wide range of topics, Mammalian Biology is primarily of interest to scientists working in the listed various fields of mammalogy but also to biologists and zoologists in general as well as to veterinarians and medical scientists.

Mammalian Species is a series with more than 800 monographs on individual species. Each monograph provides a thorough synthesis of the biological knowledge of a species, including taxonomy, ecology, and conservation status. Each year, approximately 20 new accounts are issued.

The magazine Mljekarstvo, as a scientific-professional magazine, is published quarterly. Although the magazine Mljekarstvo is not the oldest publication dealing with the production and processing of milk and dairy product issues, it is necessary to point out the fact that it is the only scientific - professional dairy magazine in Croatia with 58-year tradition of being published. The first issue, published by the Croatian Dairy Operators' Association, was published in 1951. In a paper at a Union conference held 28 October 1951 in Zagreb it was said: "Our desire is that this magazine does not meet the fate of its predecessors, but that it continues to reflect the creative efforts and to provide guidelines for the producers as well as all other operators employed in the dairy industry.".
