These instructions give you guidelines for preparing papers for IEEE Transactions and Journals. Use this document as a template if you are using Microsoft Word 6.0 or later. Otherwise, use this document as an instruction set. The electronic file of your paper will be formatted further at IEEE. Paper titles should be written in uppercase and lowercase letters, not all uppercase. Avoid writing long formulas with subscripts in the title; short formulas that identify the elements are fine (e.g., "Nd–Fe–B"). Do not write “(Invited)” in the title. Full names of authors are preferred in the author field, but are not required. Put a space between authors’ initials. The abstract must be a concise yet comprehensive reflection of what is in your article. In particular, the abstract must be self-contained, without abbreviations, footnotes, or references. It should be a microcosm of the full article. The abstract must be between 150–250 words. Be sure that you adhere to these limits; otherwise, you will need to edit your abstract accordingly. The abstract must be written as one paragraph, and should not contain displayed mathematical equations or tabular material. The abstract should include three or four different keywords or phrases, as this will help readers to find it. It is important to avoid over-repetition of such phrases as this can result in a page being rejected by search engines. Ensure that your abstract reads well and is grammatically correct.

Key words: Enter key words or phrases in alphabetical order, separated by commas. For a list of suggested keywords

This paragraph of the first footnote will contain the date on which you submitted your paper for review. It will also contain support information, including sponsor and financial support acknowledgment. For example, “This work was supported in part by the U.S. Depart¬ment of Com¬merce under Grant BS123456.” The next few paragraphs should contain the authors’ current affiliations, including current address and e-mail. For example, F. A. Author is with the National Institute of Standards and Technology, Boulder, CO 80305 USA (e-mail: author@ boulder.nist.gov). S. B. Author, Jr., was with Rice University, Houston, TX 77005 USA. He is now with the Department of Physics, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 USA (e-mail: ).T. C. Author is with the Electrical Engineering Department, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309 USA, on leave from the National Research Institute for Metals, Tsukuba, Japan (e-mail: ). If your paper is intended for a conference, please contact your conference editor concerning acceptable word processor formats for your particular conference.

When you open trans_jour.docx, select “Page Layout” from the “View” menu in the menu bar (View | Page Layout), (these instructions assume MS 6.0. Some versions may have alternate ways to access the same functionalities noted here). Then, type over sections of trans_jour.docx or cut and paste from another document and use markup styles. The pull-down style menu is at the left of the Formatting Toolbar at the top of your Word window (for example, the style at this point in the document is “Text”). Highlight a section that you want to designate with a certain style, and then select the appropriate name on the style menu. The style will adjust your fonts and line spacing. Do not change the font sizes or line spacing to squeeze more text into a limited number of pages. Use italics for emphasis; do not underline. To insert images in Word, position the cursor at the insertion point and either use Insert | Picture | From File or copy the image to the Windows clipboard and then Edit | Paste Special | Picture (with “float over text” unchecked). IEEE will do the final formatting of your paper. If your paper is intended for a conference, please observe the conference page limits.

Thirty-four male Sprague Dawley rats (220-260 g) with proven fertility and 4-day cyclic females (180-220 g) were used for experimentation. The animals were maintained under standard laboratory conditions at 27ºC with a 12-h light/dark cycle and had free access to food and drinking water. The animal care and handling practices employed throughout the study were approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee (ACUC) of the Faculty of Medicine, Politeknik Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah. The experimental males were divided into 4 groups. Under anaesthesia, the epididymides were surgically separated at the testis-caput junction, leaving the blood vasculature supplying the testis and epididymis intact (Chatterjee 1976). Twenty-four hours after surgical manipulation, these animals were subjected to subcutaneous injection of either corn oil (MP Biomedicals, USA) (Group 1, control) or CORT (Sigma-Aldrich Inc., USA) at doses of 5, 10, and 25 mg/kg/day, respectively for seven consecutive days (Groups 2, 3 and 4).

MATERIALS AND METHOD

Abbreviations and acronyms

Define abbreviations and acronyms the first time they are used in the text, even after they have already been defined in the abstract. Abbreviations such as IEEE, SI, ac, and dc do not have to be defined. Abbreviations that incorporate periods should not have spaces: write “C.N.R.S.,” not “C. N. R. S.” Do not use abbreviations in the title unless they are unavoidable (for example, “IEEE” in the title of this article).

General

Soft copy of the manuscripts should be submitted in MS Word format. The paper should conform to the style and format of the ASM Science Journal. Intending contributors will be given, on request, a copy of the journal specifications for submission of papers

Titles

The title should be concise and descriptive and preferably not exceed fifteen words. Unless absolutely necessary, scientific names and formulae should be excluded in the title. The author’s name, academic or professional affiliation, e-mail address, and full address should be included on the first page. All correspondence will be only with the corresponding author (should be indicated), including any on editorial decisions

Results, figures and Table

Data of significant interest should be included, If submitted as a hard copy, line drawings (including graphs) should be in black on white paper. Alternatively sharp photo prints may be provided. The lettering should be clear. Halftone illustrations may be included. They should be submitted as clear black and white prints on glossy paper. The figures should be individually identified lightly in pencil on the back. All legends should be brief and typed on a separate sheet. These should have short descriptive titles, be self-explanatory and typed on separate sheets. They should be as concise as possible as and not larger than a Journal page. Values in tables should include as few digits as possible. In most cases, more than two digits after the decimal point are unnecessary. Units of measurements should be SI units. Unnecessary abbreviations should be avoided. Information given in tables should not be repeated in graphs and vice versa

DISCUSSION

The contribution of the work to the overall knowledge of the subject could be shown. Relevant conclusions should be drawn, and the potential for further work indicated where appropriate. Nurses and doctors must work hand-in-hand in hospital settings to reduce the incidence of the spread of infection in hospitals by complying with SPs (Lymer et al. 1997; Chan et al. 2002; Lam et al. 2011). Education, public health awareness of health threats, behavior modification and systems control are implied as factors to make doctors and nurses autonomously comply with the practice of SP.

CONCLUSION

Appropriate acknowledgements may be included. It is therefore concluded that doctors and nurses comply with the practice of SPs in all areas of hospital settings (89.61%). However, there are four significant factors affecting doctors’ and nurses’ compliance with SPs:
