Self-Immolative Systems in Diagnostic and Therapeutic Applications
Windbedema Prisca Ouédraogo, Thomas Cailly, Valérie Collot
Self-immolative systems first emerged in prodrug chemistry in the 1980s. Since then, several types of self-immolative systems have been developed. Despite their structural differences, all self-immolative systems operate on the same principle: an intramolecular reaction cascade triggered by a specific stimulus, ultimately leading to the releas(...)

Characterization of Local Clay from Burkina Faso for the Removal of Lead from Groundwater
Arzouma Christophe Guissou, Dimanche Regie Ouedraogo, Brahima Sorgho*, Yacouba Soutra
The contamination of water resources by trace metals (TMs), particularly lead
(Pb2+), is a significant public health and environmental concern, especially in
areas where access to modern treatment technologies is limited. The adsorbent
material used is KOM clay, collected from Kombissiri, near Ouagadougou, in
Burkina Faso, and characte(...)

Application d’un biotraitement membranaire à l’abattement de la teneur en micropolluants d’une eau usée synthétique
Jean de Dieu Zongo, Yacouba Sanou
Les effluents des stations d'épuration contiennent des polluants organiques, inorganiques et microbiens, représentant une source majeure de contamination des eaux et des sols. Ce travail vise à étudier le biotraitement des eaux usées en vue d’éliminer le bisphénol A (BPA), la demande chimique en oxygène (DCO), l’ammonium (NH4+) et les ortho-ph(...)

Synthesis and Spectrometric Study of New Iron Phthalocyanine Polymers: Influence of Peripheral COOH and CN Groups on Vibrational and Electronic Properties
Lassané Tarpaga, Aristide W G Nitiema, Seydou Ouédraogo, Bertrand Ouemega, Bintou Sessouma, Mabinty Bayo-Bangoura, Karifa Bayo
We have prepared and isolated in solid form two types of polymers formed between iron (II) complexes ([FePc(COOH)8] and [FePc(CN)8]) and two bidentate ligands [trans-1,2-bis (4-pyridyl) ethylene (bpe); trans-1,2-bis (4-pyridyl) ethane (bpa)]. The electronic and vibrational absorption spectra of these complexes are discussed in comparison with(...)

Influence of anodizing processes on corrosion performance of AA5005 aluminium alloy
Ramdé Tambi
To investigate the effects of anodizing processes on the corrosion performance of alloy AA5005, a series of electrochemical and salt spray tests was conducted. Test results showed that the corrosion performance of anodized AA5005 depends both on anodizing time and the sealing process. Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) examination revealed mu(...)

Direct Electrochemical Analysis of 3-Methyl-4-Nitrophenol in Water Using Carbon Fiber Microelectrode Modified with Nickel Tetrasulfonated Phthalocyanine Complex
Yibor Fabrice Roland Bako, Boukaré Kaboré, Amidou Tall, Wendepoui Félix Sawadogo, Issa Tapsoba
This study reports a tetrasulfonated nickel phthalocyanine complex (p-NiTSPc) modified carbon fiber microelectrode (CFME) for the detection of 3-methyl-4-nitrophenol (MNP) at low potentials. The voltammogram of MNP showed a cathodic peak at −0.86 V vs Ag/AgCl corresponding to the reduction of the nitro group. An electrocatalytic activity towar(...)

Assessment of Heavy Metal Speciation and Mobility in By-Products from Wastewater Treatment Plant in Ouagadougou
Yelli Yacine Marie Laure Dah, Stéphanie Batchakoue Maiga-Yaleu, Ismaël Traore, Souleymane Kologo, Tambi Ramde
The wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) generates by-products such as treated wastewater (TWW) and dried sewage sludge (DSS). This study assesses the speciation and mobility of metals in dry sewage sludge collected in 2022 and 2024 using a three-step sequential extraction based on the BCR method. The highest total metal concentration was Mg, fol(...)

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF BURKINA PHOSPHATES FOR CHALCONE SYNTHESIS IN GREEN SOLVENT
Jean-Baptiste ZOUNGRANA, Brahima SORGHO, Corneille BAKOUAN, Régie Dimanche OUEDRAOGO, Maurice François GONON, Boubié GUEL and Philippe BLANCHART
The Claisen-Schmidt condensation is a key catalytic reaction used in chemical synthesis, developed during the 20th century. This condensation can be performed with or without toxic solvents in the presence of a catalyst. This study focused on using a green solvent - water - for the Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction, enhanced by catalysts(...)

Objective: Orange-fleshed sweet potatoes are an important source of nutrients for consumers
thanks to the carotenoids they contain. Carotenoids are bioactive compounds which, thanks to their
anti-radical properties, can protect the human body against oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is the
cause of many degenerative diseases(...)
