“Style Request: [JBSD: Journal of biomolecular structure and dynamics]”

Cbalasubramanian
Dear Admin,
I tried to find the citation style for the journal referred above but i could not find in the repository nor i was successful in editing the exiting one. I kindly request you to add the citation style of this journal to the zotero repository as it is one of the most popular journal in the field of biophysics.

Thanks in advance,
Bala

    Hello,

    Sorry for the delayed reply. I checked the unique styles in zotero repository and i found the style of American Institute of Physics (AIP) to be highly close to the style i require for 'JBSD' journal with little differences

    Styles produced by AIP:



    1 A. Thakar, J.D. Parvin, and J. Zlatanova, J. Biomol. Struct. Dyn. 27, 399-406 (2010).



    2 C.M. Rocha, A.S. Barros, A.M. Gil, B.J. Goodfellow, E. Humpfer, M. Spraul, I.M. Carreira, J.B. Melo, J. Bernardo, A. Gomes, V. Sousa, L. Carvalho, and I.F. Duarte, J. Proteome Res. 9, 319-332 (2010).


    Differences:


    1) When i insert citation in the text, it should come as Firstref(1),Secondref(2) instead of reference numbers as superscripts


    2) The journal name should be in Italics and there should not be any full stops in the abbrevations:

    eg: J Biomol Struct Dyn instead of J. Biomol. Struct. Dyn.

    3) The volume number should not be in bold

    4) last-author.journal-name INSTEAD OF last-author,journal-name

    5) Once the bibliography is inserted it should come like the following

    1. ref1
    2. ref2
    3. ref3

    I'll have a look, might take a little.

    I've posted a JBSD style - should show up on the repository soon. Any problems let me know.

    Thank you so much for adding the style.It works fine. But the name of the journal in the repository is given as 'journal of Biomolecular structure and development' instead of 'Journal of Biomolecular structure and dynamics'.

    Thank you once again

    Hi
    Have submitted a MS to JBSD, and apparantly the style has been changed. It is no longer like http://www.zotero.org/styles/journal-of-biomolecular-structure-and-dynamics

    New style instructions updated at http://www.jbsdonline.com/instructions-c4292.html
    under "References" with several examples there.
    Please help!
    Thanks
