Last Minute Notes for Submitters:

The order of the submission parts is not important!
The 'graphical abstract' and 'research highlight' are not too important, only the paper itself will be judged.
For large files, authors may upload their files to an FTP site. They can indicate on their submissions that the files are available at the FTP site. The said site is hosted by Elsevier for large files provided by the authors for their papers. For further information, you may visit our support and help site: http://support.elsevier.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/570/
Good luck!
