Gouwidida Elice KABORE, Elycée TINDANO, Armand Kuyéma NATTA, Adjima THIOMBIANO
Context: Riparian forests along watercourses of Burkina Faso are fragmented by anthropogenic pressure and
climate change. These riparian vegetations are composed by gallery forests, ripicole forests and ripicole cords. This study assessed effects of protection status (i.e. PA - protected area vs. communal area - CA) on vegetation composition(...)

Performance agronomique et mise en évidence de la distinction inter-variétale, de l’homogénéité et de la stabilité intra-variétale de sept variétés de sorgho au Burkina Faso
Nofou OUEDRAOGO, Nerbewende SAWADOGO, Minimassom P NIKIEMA, Issouf KOURAOGO, Armel P. SAWADOGO, Baloua NEBIE
Sorghum is a main cereal crop in Burkina Faso and constitute the basis of the diet for rural populations. However, its production is largely ensured by local varieties and only a small proportion is ensured by improved varieties. The objective of this study is to highlight the distinction, homogeneity, stability and performance of new guinea l(...)

Like all countries in the world, sub-Saharan Africa has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The socio- economic impact of the crisis has affected the health system, pushing certain health priorities into the back- ground. In sub-Saharan Africa, the disease remains a major problem, with the highest incidence and lethality. It causes severe(...)

Introduction: Data on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) are sparse across numerous African countries, as microbiological analyses are not routinely conducted and surveillance data are not collected. Accordingly, clinical samples are not routinely tested for carbapenem-resistant bacteria and, therefore, the general understanding of their prevalenc(...)

The treatment of water intended for consumption, by chemical products, poses a real problem of public health nowadays. Thus, the present study aims to determine a treatment method based on a coagulant and a non-toxic natural flocculant. To do so, surface water samples were treated with different doses of Moringa oleifera seed extract and cactu(...)

Abstract
Introduction: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most widespread sexually transmitted infection in the world. Today, there is growing
evidence that HPV can be transmitted early in life, and one potential route is
mother-to-child transmission. Data on this route of HPV transmission are
scarce in Africa and particularly(...)

Over the past three decades, genomic and epigenetic sciences have identified more than 70 genes involved in the molecular pathophysiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). DNA methylation, abnormal histone and chromatin regulation and the action of various miRNAs induce AD. The identification of mutated genes has paved the way for the development o(...)

Tomato is a widely consumed vegetable in Burkina Faso and throughout the world. However, when handled improperly, it can serve as a vector of pathogen transmission to human if ingested raw or through cross-contamination with cooked food. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of Salmonella spp from tomatoes sold in the markets of Ouagado(...)
