The main consideration is to ensure that enough detail is provided to verify your findings and to enable the replication of the study.2- You should maintain a balance between brevity (you cannot describe every technical issue) and completeness (you need to give adequate detail so that readers know what happened).3- Since each journal has different requirements, review the journals guidelines before beginning to write this section. The steps listed here are a general compilation of these requirements4-Order your procedures chronologically or by type of procedure and then chronologically within type of procedure using sub-headings, where appropriate, to clarify what you did. It is up to you to decide what order of presentation will make the most sense to your reader.5- Use the past tense and the third person to describe what you did. For example: The sample was incubated at 37C for 3 days. NOT: I incubate the sample at 37C for 3 days.6- Describe your experimental design clearly, including the hypotheses you tested, variables measured, how many replicates you had, controls, treatments, etc.7- Explain why each procedure was done. Reference may be made to a published paper as an alternative to describing a lengthy procedure.8- Identify the source of any specific type of equipment, a specific enzyme, organism, or a culture from a particular supplier, which is critical to the success of the experiment.9- Describe in detail any modifications to equipment or equipment constructed specifically for the study and, if pertinent, provide illustrations of the modifications.10- Precisely quantify measurements (all metric) and include errors of measurement.11- Describe the dates and the site where your field study was conducted including physical and biological characteristics of the site, if pertinent to the studys objectives.12- Identify treatments using the variable or treatment name, rather than an ambiguous, generic name or number (e.g., use healthy donors rather than group 1).13- If required by the journal, mention the approval for the study by the relevant ethics committee(s) and the informed consent of the subjects.14- Describe statistical tests and the comparisons made; ordinary statistical methods should be used without comment; advanced or unusual methods may require a literature citation.15- Show your Materials and Methods section to a colleague and ask whether they would have difficulty in repeating your study.16- Other points to consider when writing the Materials and Methods:1- Dont mix results with procedures.2- Omit all explanatory information and background save it for the discussion.3- Dont include information that is irrelevant to the reader, such as what color ice bucket you used, or which individual logged in the data.
