New Look for Animal Feed Science and Technology and Animal Reproduction Science

From 2010 Animal Feed Science and Technology and Animal Reproduction Science will increase in size and both journals will have a new and modernised look. Earlier this year the layout of articles was improved ensuring better readability and maximum visibility amongst a worldwide audience. The new look and bigger size will result in a more efficient use of pages and thus allows for more of your most recent original research to be published. Publication is faster than ever and manuscripts should be submitted online using the Elsevier editorial system.

Revised Aims and Scope for Veterinary Microbiology

The Aims and Scope of   Veterinary Microbiology (VETMIC) have been reviewed and amended in an attempt to emphasize the main editorial direction of the journal. More specifically, papers focussing solely on diagnostic techniques (such as another PCR protocol or ELISA) will not be published - focus should be on a microorganism and not on a particular technique.
