Differentiation of Sahelian aquifers from chemical and isotopic composition using linear statistics and machine learning
Abdoul-Azize Barry, Suzanne Yameogo, Meryem Touzani, Samuel Nakolendoussé, Meryem Jabrane, Abdessamad Touiouine, Ismail Mohsine, Laurent Barbiero & Vincent Valles
In Sahelian Africa, the characteristics of boreholes are often lost and, when several aquifers are present on
the same site, it is difficult to know which one is being tapped or is likely to be contaminated, which
hinders good management of the resource. In this study conducted on 153 wells distributed in the four
major aquifers of Burki(...)

Wendpoulomdé Aimé Désiré Kaboré, Stéphane Xavier Djolé, Kouadio Florent Kouakou, Anta Seck, Marie Chantal Avoaka-Boni, Yolande Gnagne-Koffi
This study reports several pulp necroses in a patient with sickle cell disease (SCD), a pathology with a high risk of infection which can lead to life-threatening patients. An African male patient with SCD, 31 years old, was received at the municipal oral health center on June 4, 2002, for a pericoronitis of 48 which quickly evolved into cellu(...)

New Experimental Methods for Measuring suction and chemical potential of Aqueous Solution of Ethanol in Soil
Samuel Ouoba and Jean-Claude Bénet
In this article we develop various experimental methods for measuring the suction and the chemical potential of water and ethanol in soil. The results obtained are in good agreement between the method using the filter paper and the sorption isotherm at low water contents. The precision is less good for the high water contents between the filte(...)

Animal African trypanosomosis is an important vector-borne disease of livestock in sub-
Saharan Africa. Pigs seem relatively tolerant to trypanosome infection and could act as a
reservoir of trypanosomes affecting animals and humans. Our ability to reliably detect trypanosome
infection in pigs depends on the performance of diagnostic tools,(...)

Evaluation of synergism in essential oils against the cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus in Burkina Faso
Coulibaly, A., Biguezoton, A.S., Hema, D.M., Dah, F.F., Sawadogo, I., Bationo, Ré.K., Compaore, M., Kiendrebeogo, M., Nebie, R.C.H.,
The cattle tick Rhipicephalus microplus affects animal production economically by reducing weight gain and milk production and causing diseases, such as babesiosis and anaplasmosis. Using synthetic acaricides to reduce their incidence has caused the emergence of resistant tick populations. The present study aimed to assess the in vitro acarici(...)
