Financial development, ecological transition, and economic growth in Sub-Saharan African countries: the performing role of the quality of institutions and human capital
Abdoulganiour Almame Tinta
Even though the ecological transition is considered the next big challenge for Africa, few studies have examined its scope regardless of the massive financing that is required and the stakes on other sectors. This study analyzes the links between financial development, ecological transition, and economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa from 1980(...)

African Shea Butter Properties Related to Common Extraction Technologies : A Review
Bertrand W. F. Goumbri1,2,3,4 · Thais Lomonaco Teodoro da Silva · Roland D. Marini · Rasmané Semdé · Touridomon Issa Somé · Sabine Danthine
Abstract
Shea butter is an important lipid material for food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. Most of the shea butter consumed in the world comes from Africa. The extraction protocol is not standardized among all regions of production. It can be done using either traditional or improved (semi-mechanical) processes. The quality of she(...)

Analyse biochimique d’un pic insolite d’allure monoclonale en électrophorèse des protéines urinaires: à propos d’un cas
Aboubacar Dit Tietie Bissan, Raoul Karfo, Amadou Diawara, Aboubacar Tekete, Oumar Tangara
L´électrophorèse des protéines urinaires est souvent nécessaire au diagnostic et au suivi de certaines pathologies urologiques ou rénales, et des hémopathies lymphoïdes. Nous rapportons le cas d´un profil atypique d´électrophorèse des protéines urinaires sur capillaire et en gel d´agarose. Il s´agit d´un pic de nature inconnue d´allure monoclo(...)

The role of Balanites aegyptiaca (L) Delile in the livelihood and local economy in Sahelian and Sudano-Sahelian zones of Burkina Faso: basis for its conservation
Ouédraogo Sambo, Ouédraogo Oumarou, Thiombiano Adjima et Boussim I. Joseph
Local forests and fruit trees in sub-Saharan Africa play an important role to improve food and nutrition security, health and incomes generation. The support and the economic value of Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) from tropical forests in people life has been widely investigated but several tree species’ uses and contribution to household(...)

Phytochemistry and alternative use of sweeteners in metabolic diseases
Ibrahim KABORE, Mamounata DIAO, Samson GUENNE, Amana METUOR-DABIRE, Hemayoro SAMA, Alin CIOBICA, Adama HILOU, Martin KIENDREBEOGO
The plants native to tropical climates and even southern Africa (5/8) are considerable, which served as a matrix for the isolation and identification of natural sweeteners. These compounds of plant origin have become essential in many fields. From the agronomic industry to the pharmaceutical industry, their use is aimed at combating the supply(...)

Performance Optimization Study of an Adsorption Solar Refrigerator System with Special Reference to the Effect of the Collector-Adsorber Tilt Angle
Guy Christian Tubreoumya, Téré Dabilgou, Eloi Salmwendé Tiendrebeogo, Jacques Nebié, Boubou Bagré, Belkacem Zeghmati, Alfa Oumar Dissa, Jean Koulidiati, Antoine Bere
This paper presents an optimization study of an adsorption solar refrigerator through dynamic modeling and simulation of the system behavior using the zeolite/water couple. Thus, a mathematical model representing the evolution of heat and mass transfer at each component of the adsorption solar refrigerator has been developed. The results of t(...)

Comparative study of thermophysical parameters of different types of upholstery wood and the influence of density on combustion parameters at microscale
Abdoul Fayçal BAGUIAN, Salifou Koucka OUIMINGA, Sampawinde Augustin ZONGO, Ibrahim Harouna GADO, Rodolphe SONNIER
The fire behaviour of five types of wood was studied on a microscale. Some thermophysical parameters such as thermal conductivity, effusivity and diffu- sivity were also evaluated. The microscale analysis is based on the analysis of several parameters such as the assessment of heat released rates (HRR), peak heat released rates (pHRR), total h(...)
