Give the full details. Careful writing of this section is critically important because the cornerstone of the scientific method requires that your results must be reproducible. Most of this section should be written in the past tense. 实验过程描述 Many (probably most) readers of your paper will skip this section. However, When your paper is subjected to peer review, a good reviewer will read the Experimental carefully. If there is serious doubt that your experiments could be repeated, the reviewer will recommend rejection of your manuscript no matter how excited your results. Example: Comments of review , Manuscript， Revised and resubmitted. 实验过程描述 /content/2006-2-15/123881.html 实验过程就是将自己实验的整个操作流程描述清楚，可附以实验流程图进行说明。流程图的画法很多，有的是文字式的，有的是示意图的，这样做能够使评审人对你的实验过程一目了然。如果示意图画得漂亮，还可以增强一些印象分。 描述的时候，要有鲜明的层次感，对每个步骤之间的顺序和关联要描述清楚，不要造成实验过程混乱不堪的印象。因为最终评审人判断你的实验是否合理，是从这个过程的描述来的。 有些期刊的Experimental部分放于文后，有些论文把Experimental合并到Results中。 实验过程描述 Subheadings Experimental section often has subheadings, numbered or unnumbered (副标题不编号). Exception 1、Exception 2 When possible, construct subheadings that match those to be used in Results, so that the reader will be able to grasp quickly the relationship of a particular methodology to the related Results. Example 1 Example 2. 实验过程描述 Methods Methods are similar to cookbook recipes. If a reaction mixture was heated, give the temperature; Upon a solution, give the composition. Usual order for description of the activity : chronological. Example 1 Example 2. If your method is new (unpublished), you must provide all of the needed detail. if a method has been previously published in a standard journal, you may just give the reference. However, you may re-describe it brie
