Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences

Aims & Scope

JPPS is a broad-spectrum, peer-reviewed, international pharmaceutical journal circulated electronically via the World Wide Web. Articles will appear individually as soon as they are accepted and are ready for circulation. JPPS publishes research articles, research reports, technical notes, scientific commentaries, news, views and review articles in the physical, chemical, biological, biotechnical, clinical, and socioeconomic-pharmacoeconomic, regulatory aspects of the pharmaceutical sciences. Formulation development studies are only acceptable if they provide a clear advancement in the field. Applying known formulation techniques to another drug does not suffice. A study of natural products will not be accepted if it only reports the pharmacological data of a certain plant or plant extracts. Identification and separation of potential active ingredients coupled with carefully planned pharmacological studies may be acceptable. In addition, attention to the time- and storage-dependent stabilities will be scrutinized. Medicinal chemistry papers will be considered if new classes of drugs are studied with reasonle tarionales, or if there is a strong rationale for developing a new derivative of an old drug. Clear identification and separation of the compounds are needed. Mere synthesis of another derivative will not suffice. Routine bioequivalence studies, i.e., a comparison of the bioavailability of two or more products, will not be accepted for publication. Analytical method development for formulations will not be acceptable unless it contains experiments with sufficient scientific rigor and breakthrough data. For Western blot experiments, i) all individual traces must be provided as a supplementary file. In the main text representative traces will suffice. ii) The image should cover sufficient area around the band of interest; ideally one molecular weight marker above and one below the band. iii) The image should show the background information. iv) Bands recorded simultaneously should be shown in the same figure. v) Breaks must be placed between more than two gels recorded in different times if they are shown on the same figure. For population PK and/or PD studies, provide a supplemental documents file that includes the appropriate goodness-of-fit plots. Submission of the author's CV along with unsolicitaded Review article including systematic reviews, will be very useful as will expedite the process.
