Thermal comfort is a feeling of well-being in a given environment. In the context of sustainable development, new regulations on thermal insulation in the building sector are leading researchers to design new materials for
energy-saving systems and ensuring comfort in the habitat. We highlight the effects induced by the use of Pr. Blanchard's(...)

Sensitive determination of diuron on zinc oxide nanoparticles modified carbon paste electrode in soil and water samples
Bibata Ouedraogo, Amidou Tall, Yibor Fabrice Roland Bako, Issa Tapsoba
An electrochemical sensor based on Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) modified carbon paste electrode was designed for the toxic diuron pesticide detection. The ZnONPs were synthesized through the hydrothermal route
and their structural properties were investigated via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction powder (XRD). The(...)

Impact of Improved Cookstoves on the Level of Household Exposure to CO and PM2.5 in Sub-Saharan Cities: The Case of the City of Ouagadougou
Lucmane Koala, Kayaba Haro, Ousmane Coulibaly1 Bernard Nana, Issoufou Ouarma, Edwige Ouedraogo, Tizane Daho, Oumar Sanogo, Antoine Béré
Air pollution is one of the major global threats to human health. In Burkina Faso, more than 80% of the population uses solid fuels as the main source of cooking energy. This paper reports a comparative study on the exposure of household to the carbon monoxide (CO) and particulate matter (PM2.5) emitted by improved cookstoves (ICS) or traditio(...)

MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS OF HEPATITIS B TRANSMISSION MODEL.
OUEDRAOGO Boukary, ZOROM Malicki, GOUBA Elisée
In this article, we present the transmission dynamics of the acute and chronic hepatitis B epidemic problem. To control the spread of hepatitis in a community, we first develop a mathematical model for the transmission of the virus of hepatitis B. After framing the mathematical model, we show the existence and uniqueness of the
solution, the(...)

Promoting private forests for biodiversity conservation and ecosystems restoration in the Sahel region
Karafa Bognini, Loyapin Bondé, Sié Sylvestre Da, Abisha Mapendembe, Roch Yao Gnabeli
Private forests have the potential to mitigate biodiversity loss and improve community livelihoods. However, information on the socio-ecological factors that drive their establishment and long-term management are limited. This study aimed to narrow this gap by assessing the potential of privately-owned forests in conserving biodiversity and su(...)

Hydro-Agricultural Development, Integrated Water Resources Management in Climate Variability and Agricultural Migration Context in the Plandi 2 Sub-Watershed of Upper Mouhoun, Burkina Faso
Fatimata Sanogo, Fatoumata Kabore, Adama Kekele
Burkina Faso is characterised by unfavourable hydrological conditions and the population's need for water to increase. In response, the authorities developed a policy of water resource mobilisation to satisfy the requirement of agro-pastoral and domestic needs. The Hauts-Bassins region benefited from these developments with the transfer of agr(...)

The telomerase activator TA‑65 protects from cigarette smoke‑induced small airway remodeling in mice through extra‑telomeric effects
Arnaud Jean Florent Tiendrébéogo, Thibaud Soumagne, François Pellegrin, Maylis Dagouassat, JeanneTran Van Nhieu, Philippe Caramelle, Emmanuel N. Paul, Benjamin Even, Maeva Zysman, Yvon Julé, Abdoulaye Samb, Jorge Boczkowski, Sophie Lanone & Frédéric Schlemmer
Small airway remodeling (SAR) is a key phenomenon of airfow obstruction in smokers, leading to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). SAR results in an increased thickness of small airway walls, with a combination of peribronchiolar fbrosis with increased fbrous tissue and accumulation of mesenchymal and epithelial cells. SAR pathogenes(...)

Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is a basic cereal for many populations living in the arid and semi-arid zones of Africa and India. In Burkina Faso, pearl millet is one of the main cereal crops in the population. However, most of the cultivated varieties are traditional landraces which productivity is always very low. This study g(...)
