Le nord du Burkina Faso, était jadis une région où les ignames communément appelées « yùyà » étaient très prisées et cultivées. De nos jours, cette culture est en voie de disparition. Cependant, quelques paysans ont su conserver les
principaux groupes variétaux qui sont : « nyù » ; « waogo », « boussa » et « rogui ». La présente étude a été(...)

Performance Analysis of a Boost Converter with Components Losses
Prince Abdoul Aziz Honadia, Fabé Idrissa Barro, Moustapha Sané
A theoretical study of a conventional boost converter is presented. Based on the real behavior of the components, two models of the boost converter are introduced: one dealing only with losses through inductor and capacitor and another taking into account switching losses in addition to resistive ones. From these two models, the detailed analy(...)

Comparative study of leaves and root bark from Securidaca longepedunculata Fresen (Polygalaceae): Phytochemistry and antiplasmodial activity
Karama Issa, Compaoré Moussa, Traoré Orokia, Sanon Souleymane, Lagnika Latifou and Kiendrebeogo Martin
L’activité antiplasmodiale des écorces de racines de Securidaca longepedunculata a déjà été démontrée conformément à son utilisation médicinale. Malheureusement, la récolte incontrôlée et massive des racines de S. longepedunculata sont incompatibles à sa gestion durable, en particulier dans les zones sahéliennes. Cet article a pour but de comp(...)

Hydrogeochemical Characterization of Dug Well Water and Its Suitability for Domestic Water Supply in the Village of Passakongo, Dédougou municipality, Burkina Faso.
Aboubakar Sako, Sâga Sawadogo, Moïse Yoni, Mamadou Nimi, Ousseni Zongo, Ousmane Bamba
Hydrogeochemical characterization and suitability study of dug well water for domestic purpose were carried out
in a semi-arid rural village in Burkina Faso. Thirty water samples were collected from 15 wells in dry and wet
seasons, 2017. Electrical conductivity (EC) and total dissolved solids as well as major ions of all samples were
within(...)

ATYPIE SEMIOLOGIQUE DU SUJET AGE : UNE ALTERATION DE L'ETAT GENERAL D’ORIGINE TUBERCULEUSE PULMONAIRE OCCASIONNANT UNE ERRANCE DIAGNOSTIQUE ET THERAPEUTIQUE
APETI S., OUEDRAOGO LSPW., TOLO N., KLOUVI KA. , APETI KZ. , AMOUZOU YEGO., KOUEVI-KOKO TE., COUME M., BALOGOU AK.
La tuberculose est fréquente chez le sujet âgé (SA) du fait de la baisse de l’immunité.
La tuberculose surtout pulmonaire présente une atypie sémiologique d’emprunt
cardiaque ou pulmonaire sur terrain polypathologique en gériatrie. La persistance des
symptômes malgré les traitements doit faire réviser les diagnostics. L’évolution est

Handling conditions and microbial contamination of fish from Ouagadougou markets in Burkina Faso
Achille S. OUEDRAOGO, Adama OUEDA, Awa GNEME, Gueswendé L. SAVADOGO, Nicolas BARRO & Gustave B. KABRE
The purpose of this study was to analyze the handling conditions and microbial contamination of fish from Ouagadougou markets. In spite of the fact that fish consumption is linked to several events of alimentary infection in Burkina Faso, fewer studies were dedicated to this issue. The study was conducted using two approaches. First, an invest(...)

GHASP: an Hα kinematics survey of spiral galaxies - XII. Distribution of luminous and dark matter in spiral and irregular nearby galaxies using Rc-band photometry
M. Korsaga, P. Amram, C. Carignan and B. Epinat
Mass models of 100 nearby spiral and irregular galaxies, covering morphological types from Sa to Irr, are computed using H α rotation curves and Rc-band surface brightness profiles. The kinematics was obtained using a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer. One of the aims is to compare our results with those from Korsaga et al., which used mid-i(...)

Experimental study of the thermo-physical properties of lateritic blocks used in the habitat in dry tropical climate
Emmanuel Ouédraogo, Ousmane Coulibaly, B. Kossi Imbga, P. Florent Kiéno and Abdoulaye Ouédraogo ;
This article presents an experimental study on the thermo-physical characterization of local
materials used in building construction. These materials are laterite cut blocks from three different
quarries. The characterization was done with the hot plate device and the asymmetrical method
was used. All the samples studied have(...)

Wastewater used for urban agriculture in West Africa as a reservoir for antibacterial resistance dissemination
Blaise P Bougnom , Cheikna Zongo, Alan McNally, Vito Ricci, François X Etoa, Sören Thiele-Bruhn, Laura J V Piddock
State of art metagenomics were used to investigate the microbial population, antibiotic resistance genes and plasmids of medical interest in wastewater used for urban agriculture in Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso). Wastewater samples were collected from three canals near agricultural fields in three neighbourhoods. Assessment of microbial populatio(...)

Tone Reservation Based Gaussian Clipping and Filtering for OFDM PAPR Mitigation
Palicot Jacques, Louet Yves, Guel, Desire
In this paper, a new Tone Reservation (TR) method to decrease the OFDM Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) is described. The proposed TR method is based on a new Clipping Function: the Gaussian function to generate the signal which will be inserted on the reserved tones. The advantages of this approach is twofold: First, the Gaussian clipping f(...)
