Metagenomic Analysis of the Abundance and Composition of Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Hospital Wastewater in Benin, Burkina Faso, and Finland
Markkanen MA,Haukka K,Pärnänen KMM, Dougnon VT, Bonkoungou IJO, Garba Z, Tinto H, Sarekoski A, Karkman A,Kantele A, Virta MPJ,
Antibiotic resistance is a global threat to human health, with the most severe effect in low- and middle-income countries. We explored the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the hospital wastewater (HWW) of nine hospitals in Benin and Burkina Faso, two low-income countries in West Africa, with shotgun metagenomic sequencing. For(...)

Study of an Approach Based on the Analysis of Computer Program Execution Traces for the Detection of Vulnerabilities
Gouayon Koala, Didier Bassolé, Télesphore Tiendrébéogo, Oumarou Sié
Malicious attacks exploit software vulnerabilities to violate key security features in computer systems. In this paper, we review the related works of studies that propose mechanisms for detecting software vulnerabilities or ways to protect application data. The aim is to analyse how these mechanisms are exploited to detect software vulnerabil(...)

Migration au Burkina Faso et pratiques translocales
Azianu Komi Ameko, Minoungou Abdoul-Kader, Zoma Vincent, Sangli Gabriel, Dabiré Hubert Bonayi & Compaoré Georges
La migration a une origine ancienne au Burkina Faso. Elle est influencée par divers facteurs; y compris les questions politiques, économiques, environnementales, culturelles et sociétales. Elle a lieu à l'intérieur du pays et à l'extérieur, c'est-à-dire à l'étranger. Dans sa dimension translocale, la migration met en lumière des liens très pro(...)

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF A LOCAL FURNACE FOR MELTING ALUMINUM FROM USED SOLAR MODULES IN BURKINA FASO
Abdoul Aziz Ouiminga, Boureima Kaboré, Germain Wende Pouiré Ouedraogo, Sié Kam
The manufacture of photovoltaic (PV) panels is evolving increasingly around the world. Used panels are a source
of environmental pollution because recycling them is difficult. In this experimental study, we propose a solution
for recycling aluminum from PV solar modules using a local furnace for melting. First, the frame is separated
fro(...)
