Include:
~sufficient interpretation of the data to describe the results and why the next experiment was performed
~clear descriptions of the doses or concentrations, duration of treatment, cell lines, animals, etc used to obtain each result, and a rationale for why these were selected. (For example, you might state that you chose to use a particular concentration of drug in your cell culture system because a previous study showed that it was the most effective, or because your pilot study showed that it had the least cytotoxicity)
~the statistical significance of the findings, including p-values where applicable
Do not include:
~comparisons with the data from previous studies, the implications of the findings, limitations of the study, or future studies that are planned. These all belong in the Discussion section
~the same information presented in the previous sections (Introduction, Materials and Methods), or details that appear in the Figures or Tables.
~too many Figures and Tables. Many journals have limits, be sure that you check the “Instructions for Authors” for your journal when preparing your manuscript.
