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發(fā)表高質(zhì)量的研究論文，假設(shè)和評論在各個領(lǐng)域在以下領(lǐng)域:?生物、臨床、環(huán)境和其他系統(tǒng)中的自由基和其他活性物質(zhì)?氧化還原信號?抗氧化劑，包括飲食衍生的抗氧化劑和人類營養(yǎng)的其他相關(guān)方面?氧化損傷、機制和測量手稿應(yīng)在明確提出的數(shù)據(jù)和統(tǒng)計分析的支持下，對該領(lǐng)域作出重大進展。稿件應(yīng)盡量簡明扼要，但須提供有關(guān)的背景資料、數(shù)據(jù)和方法。強烈建議審稿人找出可以縮短的部分。FRR不鼓勵純描述性的論文(例如，人類疾病或給動物注射毒素后抗氧化水平變化的目錄)。我們也不鼓勵“篩選”論文，比如使用“總抗氧化活性”測試來比較植物提取物或包括傳統(tǒng)藥物在內(nèi)的草藥的抗氧化活性。
