CK2 accumulation at the axon initial segment depends on sodium channel Nav1
Y.E. Hien, A. Montersino, F. Castets, C. Leterrier, O. Filhol, H. Vacher, B. DargentAccumulation of voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1 at the axon initial segment (AIS), results from a direct interaction with ankyrin G. This interaction is regulated in vitro by the protein kinase CK2, which is also highly enriched at the AIS. Here, using phosphospecific antibodies and...

Both Lewis and secretor status mediate susceptibility to rotavirus infections in a rotavirus genotype–dependent manner
K. SIMPOREBackground. The live oral rotavirus (RV) vaccines have shown a reduced efficacy in Africa. Recent in vitro studies have shown binding of the RV surface protein (VP4) to histo–blood group antigens (HBGAs) in an RV genotype–dependent manner, suggesting them to be putative receptors for RV. The...

Eco Insulation Materials: Reduction of Cooling Loads of a House Made of Breeze Block or Laterite in a Dry Tropical Climate:
Ousmane Coulibaly and David Yemboini Kader ToguyeniIn this paper, we study the influence of eco materials for roof insulation and fiber-reinforced mortar coatings on cooling loads of a home in dry tropical climate. The walls of the house are made of cinderblock or laterite and the insulating material of a roof panel is made with lime (24%),...

Purification and Characterization of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea Batatas) Peroxidase.
Mamounata Diao, Brice N’cho Ayékoué, Crépin I. Dibala, Soumaïla Dabonné and Mamoudou H. DickoPeroxidase (POX), a biotechnologically important enzyme was purified from bulb of Ipomoea batatas and characterized for use in the bioconversion of phenolic compounds from industrial wastewater. Purified peroxidase (POXp) was obtained using the gel-filtration chromatography and anion exchange...

Une méthode mécanique pour déterminer la porosité totale d’un sol
Samuel Ouoba, Bruno Cousin, Fabien Cherblanc, Jean Koulidiati, Jean-Claude BénetCette note présente une méthode mécanique pour la détermination de la porosité totale d’un sol. La méthode présentée consiste à placer un échantillon de sol dans une cellule régulée dont on peut faire varier le volume par paliers grâce à un piston. La porosité du sol se déduit...

Influence of Ambient Pressure on the Evaporation of Volatile Organic Pollutants (VOP) during Soil Decontamination: Case of the Trichloroethylene (TCE)
Samuel Ouoba, Salifou K. Ouiminga, Justin Zaida, Bruno Cousin, Moussa Sougoti, Jean KoulidiatiThis article presents the results on the volatilization of the volatile organic pollutants (VOP) during decontamination process from the soil. The choice of TCE as a volatile organic pollutant is explained by the fact that it is relatively highly soluble in water, compared to other compounds,...

A Forensic Analysis of Android Malware--How is Malware Written and How it Could Be Detected?
T. BISSYANDEWe consider in this paper the analysis of a large set of malware and benign applications from the Android ecosystem. Although a large body of research work has dealt with Android malware over the last years, none has addressed it from a forensic point of view. After collecting over 500,000...
