i submit a paper to the joural
African Journal of Microbiology Research and published. a find the mistake in proof, and piont it to my editor. but its still wrong hospital in paper. so i email to my editor for the serious mistake, but this editor does not write to me, and did not modify the author unit. so, i would like to call the editorial department to communicate the matter, but there is no phone number in the site,
how can I do?
my paper http://www.academicjournals.org/ajmr/abstracts/abstracts/abstract 2012/29Feb/Shen and Chen.htm
my work in 'Affiliated No.4 Hospital of Soochow University' not 'Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University'. the two hospital is not a one.
 
That paper is already published now. You should have corrected it during the "proof" stage. The editor might consider printing a correction which would appear in a small box in a future journal, but I doubt it. I would do nothing and let it go. Ten years from now, it won't matter.
 
If I were you, I would work on my English writing skills instead of worrying about a typo.

Pretty harsh. I suspect his English skills are better than your Chinese language skills.
Clearly, English is his second language so we should give him a break.
 
anyone can give the phone number of editor office of African Journal of Microbiology Research. i decided to call editor-in-chief. give me some suggestion.

It is unlikely that people on this forum can help you in this very specific request.

Sorry, can't help you with that one, my last publication was in the Moroccan Journal of Theoretical Physics...

As noted in the non-douchey replies, there's not much anyone here can do to help. It's already printed. You might be able to get them to print a correction in a future issue, but why bother?

It's a minor detail of no consequence.
 
i only want they can modify the online, howcan i get it??
is there nothing more to be done?
