• Only the author's initials are given, regardless of the presentation of the author's name on the journal article.
• Include the names of authors, up to ten only. If there are more than ten authors, list the first ten followed by et al.
• All titles are given maximal capitalisation.
• Be sure to adhere to the bolding and italicisation requirements.
• The titles of journals should be abbreviated as they appear in the CAS Source Index (CASSI).
If a journal title is not included in CASSI, include the full, unabbreviated title in the citation. Single word journal titles are not abbreviated.
• If there is no volume number, give the issue number only (see example below).
• Supplement number replaces Volume number if citing from a Supplemental issue, e.g. 12 (Suppl. 4)
• To indicate a page range, use, e.g., 123-129, 126-134, or 111-222. If you refer to only one page, use only 111.
• Include the DOI of the article if one is available. Do not include the protocol in the DOI (http:// or https://).
• If no DOI is available, include the URL instead. The URL is followed by a space and the access date in parentheses with no punctuation in between, e.g. https://digital.sciencehistory.org/focus/periodic-tables (accessed 2019-09-10)
• When including the URL of articles retrieved from searches in full-text databases, use the Recommended URLs for Full-text Databases, which are the URLs for the main entrance to the service and are easier to reproduce.
• When citing a journal article accessed via a full-text database, Include the access date and the name of the aggregator database after the DOI/URL, e.g. (accessed 2019-11-22 from ProQuest: Materials Science & Engineering Collection.)
