"Chemia Analityczna - Chemical Analysis" publishes original research papers, short communications and laboratory notes. They must contain elements of scientific novelty. All theoretical and practical aspects of analytical chemistry can be addressed. The paper should not exceed 15 printed pages, including tables, figures and references. Submission of a review paper should be earlier accepted by the Editorial Committee and agreed concerning its planned size. The review should present a critical evaluation of a particular aspect of analytical chemistry.
Submission of the manuscript implies that the content of the paper has not been published before (except in the form of a conference- or lecture abstract, or as a part of the thesis) or submitted for publication to another journal. This should be confirmed in the cover letter by the main author on behalf of all authors. After submission of the paper and its acceptance by the Editorial Committee, the authors transfer the copyrights to the Committee of Analytical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences.

Submitted manuscripts must be written in English language.

Submission of the manuscript. Authors are encouraged to submit their manuscripts by e-mail to:

Each manuscript will be reviewed by two reviewers. The authors may suggest potential reviewers for their work. The reviewers comments will be mailed to the corresponding author. The revised manuscripts not returned within three months will be considered as withdrawn.

Preparation of the manuscript. The manuscript should be headed by a concise and informative title followed by the names of all authors and the address of the laboratory(-ies) where the work has been done. The name of the corresponding author should be indicated by an asterisk. The corresponding author should also provide his/her E-mail and fax number.
The authors are encouraged to use descriptive headings in the following order: Key words, Abstract, Introduction, Experimental, Results and Discussion, Conclusions, Acknowledgments (if any), References. The number of keywords should not exceed six. The abstract should include the main points of the paper. The use of abbreviations, except those which are generally accepted, should be avoided. The form of the abstract should be suitable for direct publication and not exceed 200 words. The Polish authors are requested to enclose the Polish translation of the abstract.
The approximate location of the tables and figures should be indicated on the margin and they must be cited in the text with consecutive numbering. Captions to the figures should be given in a separate list. Each table should have a title which includes all information necessary for the reader. The description on the figure (e.g. units on the axis of the diagrams) must be presented in the size appropriate for the final printout. The curves in the plots should be drawn in black using solid, dashed and pointed lines. The use of colors should be avoided.
The references in the paper should be numbered according to the sequence of their appearance in the text. The citations in the text should appear as numbers in square brackets. In the case of less common journal it is recommended to add a reference to Chemical Abstracts. The last names with the first name initials of all authors should be given. Journal titles must be given in abbreviation in accordance with international practice, followed by the volume number (in bold), the page numbers, and the year of publication (in parenthesis). Books are to be cited by giving the author(s) and editor (s) names (if any), full title, publisher, the place of publication, year and page number.
