K Koudouvo, D S Karou, K Kokou, K Essien, K Aklikokou, I A Glitho, J Simpore, R Sanogo, C De Souza, M Gbeassor
Background: Malaria continues to be of great concern in Togo, as it accounts for high mortality rates, principally in children. Although plant-based medicines are the only means in major malarious regions of the country, still very little is known about the medicinal plants and medical practices of the indigenous people.
Objective: The pres(...)

Background
Approximately, 15–20 of 40 HPVs that infect the female genital tract confer a high-risk of invasive cancer, thus HPVs account for 95% of cervix cancers. The objectives of this study were to: (i) estimate the prevalence of HPV infection in women infected with HIV in Ouagadougou, (ii) identify potential carcinogenic HPV strains and ((...)

The aim of the present study was to evaluate some enzymes inhibitory effects of 11 plant species belonging to 9 families from Burkina Faso. Methanolic extracts were used for their Glutathione-s-transferase (GST), Acetylcholinesterase (AChE), Carboxylesterase (CES) and Xanthine Oxidase (XO) inhibitory activities at final concentration of 100| r(...)

Nutritional potentials of Cucumeropsis edulis (Hook. f.) Cogn seeds and the pulp of Adansonia digitata L. from Burkina Faso: Determination of chemical composition and functional properties
1*Savadogo, A., 1Zongo, C., 2Bayala, B., 1Somda, K. M. and 1Traoré, A. S.
Cucumeropsis edulis seeds from six small markets of Ouagadougou and six samples of Adansonia digitata pulp products from two towns (Bobo and Ouagadougou) were subjected to chemical composition and functional properties analyses. The proximate content of Cucumeropsis edulis seeds included moisture (varies from 3.81 to 4.76% of fresh matter), to(...)

In the present study, 36 plant extracts, belonging to 6 families from Burkina Faso were used to evaluate their glutathione-S-transferase (GST), acetylcholinesterase (AChE), carboxylesterase (CES) and xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitory activities and their phenolic, tannin and flavonoids contents by using spectrophotometrical methods. At 100 jug(...)

Well-posedness result for a nonlinear elliptic problem involving variable exponent and Robin type boundary condition.
S. Ouaro, A. Tchousso
We study the following nonlinear elliptic boundary value problem
b(u)−diva(x,∇u)=fa(x,∇u).η=−|u|p(x)−2u in Ω, on ∂Ω,
where Ω is a smooth bounded open domain in ℝN,N≥1 with smooth boundary ∂Ω. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution for f∈L∞(Ω), the existence and uniqueness of an entropy solution for L1-data f. The functional(...)

Biodepollution of wastewater containing phenolic compounds from leather industry by plant peroxidases
DIAO M, N Ouédraogo, LS Baba-Moussa, PW Savadogo, GN Amani, IHN. Bassolé, Mamoudou H. DICKO
This study deals with the use of peroxidases (POXs) from Allium sativum, Ipomoea batatas, Raphanus sativus and Sorghum bicolor to catalyze the degradation of free phenolic compounds as well as phenolic compounds contained in wastewater from leather industry. Secretory plant POXs were able to catalyze the oxidation of gallic acid, ferulic acid,(...)

A cryptic subgroup of Anopheles gambiae is highly susceptible to human malaria parasites
A. GNEME
Population subgroups of the African malaria vector Anopheles gambiae have not been comprehensively characterized owing to the lack of unbiased sampling methods. In the arid savanna zone of West Africa, where potential oviposition sites are scarce, widespread collection from larval pools in the peridomestic human habitat yielded a comprehensive(...)
