Abstract:
A research paper's contribution exists not only in its originality and
creativity but also in its continuity and development for research that
follows. The reference section can play a key role to researchers who are
interested in a paper's statement or who would like to follow the study or
find useful information from the paper. Citation error and quotation error
occurred very frequently in a scientific paper, however, the author easily
ignores it. Ozturk and Bektas published a paper, there is no doubt about
this paper, which was previously evaluated and accepted for publication.
This study presents quotation and citation errors of Lagergren's pseudo-
first order rate equation and Ho's pseudo-second order rate expression. It
is also suggested that an author not only must be creative but also must be
careful while writing in order to publish more valuable and papers more
worthy of reading. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
