ABSTRACT

An abstract is a short and powerful summary that describes the focus of a research paper. It is originally written content—not an excerpt from the larger work—and usually contains keywords that are found throughout the full paper itself. (150 – 200 words).

Abstracts generally contain four main elements:

Purpose: Clearly define the purpose and importance of your research. This includes a statement of the problem or issue.
Methodology: State the research methods used to answer your question.
Results: Summarize the main research results.
Conclusion: What are the implications of your research?

Abstracts are useful because they allow people who are considering reading an article to quickly decide if it is what they're looking for or piques their interest.

Font: Times New Roman, Size 12. 150-200 words

SAMPLE ABSTRACT

"Insect Repellent Potential of Peppermint Essential Oil."

Andrea Messing

The peppermint plant, also known as Mentha balsamea Wild, is a hybrid mint, a cross between watermint and spearmint. One of the popular uses for peppermint—aside from its use as a dietary supplement or health application—is its potential to repel insects. This study focuses on the development of insect repellent using peppermint oil. 25 grams of fresh peppermint was collected, crushed and placed in a glass jar. The jar was then filled with olive oil, and the oil was allowed to steep in a warm location for two days. After two days, the oil was strained using a folded cheesecloth. The extracted oil was gathered and diluted 70% in three separate containers to be transferred into spray bottles. Testing involved spraying the sample into a glass jar with Anopheles juidthae (common mosquitoes) and compared with the effect of a commercial insect repellant. This study challenges the belief that synthetic insect repellents are more effective than all-natural, essential oil options.
