Introduce the topic of your paper. What is your research question? What experiments have addressed your question? Applications for medicine and/or environment?
Sample citations: [1] [2]


Similarly, exposure to the exogenous Fusobacterium necrophorum, which is not a part of normal throat flora does not always result in Lemierre’s syndrome; it can also result in tonsillitis, meningitis, and metastatic lesions, and a whole host of other issues (Fig. 2) [3]


A citation code consists of a hyperlinked reference within "ref" begin and end codes.
