Seasonal diet shift of the most important fish species in a sahelo-soudanian reservoir (Burkina Faso)
Oueda Adama, Guenda Wendengoudi, Ouattara Allassane, Gourène Germain, Hugueny Bernard et Kabré Gustave B.
Fish diet, feeding patterns and trophic interactions were studied according to seasonina Sahelo-Soudanian man-made lake (Loumbila, Burkina Faso). Some food resources (zooplankton and benthic fauna) were also sampled. An examination of 425 non-empty stomachs belonging to 6 species showed hsAAuchenoglanis occidentalism Clarias anguillaris and Sc(...)

Monoolein–water liquid crystalline gels of gentamicin as bioresorbable implants for the local treatment of chronic osteomyelitis: in vitro characterization
Moustapha Ouédraogo , Rasmané Semdé , Issa Touridomon Somé , Rasmata Traoré/Ouédraogo, , Innocent Pierre Guissou , Viviane Henschel and Jacques Dubois
To maximize the efficacy of chronic osteomyelitis antibiotherapy while reducing antibiotic systemic toxicity, as well as time and costs of hospitalizations, it has been thought that monoolein–water gels incorporating gentamicin sulfate could be used as local, bioresorbable, and sustained-release implants. For this purpose, four formulations we(...)

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms in Burkina Faso: impact on plasma fasting homocysteine and after methionine loading test
Andrea Angius, Jacques Simporé, Ivana Persico, Alessandro Sassu, Dionigio Antonio Prodi, Salvatore Musumeci
In Burkina Faso the levels of plasma homocysteine (Hcy) are lower and the methionine loading tests suggest a more effective Hcy metabolism. The polymorphisms of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) showed a relevant difference in the allele frequencies of T MTHFR-677 in young and in old subjects, while the allele frequency of C MTHFR-12(...)

Haemoglobin C and S in natural selection against Plasmodium falciparum malaria: a plethora or a single shared adaptive mechanism?
F. Verra, G. Bancone, P. Avellino, I. Blot, J. Simporé, D. Modiano
Conclusive evidence exists on the protective role against clinical Plasmodium falciparum malaria of Haemoglobin S (beta 6Glu-->Val) and HbC (HbC; beta 6Glu-->Lys), both occurring in sub-Saharan Africa. However, the mechanism/s of the protection exerted remain/s debated for both haemoglobin variants, HbC and HbS. Recently, an abnormal display o(...)

CADMIUM ELECTRODEPOSITION FROM AN AQUEOUS 0.1 M CdSO4 SOLUTION PART 1: ELECTROCHEMICAL AND IN SITU AFM STUDIES IN THE CASE OF n-Si(100)
Boubié GUEL
Electrochemical and in situ AFM studies of cadmium electrodeposition from an aqueous 0.1 M CdSO4 solution have been carried out in the case of (100) n-type silicon single crystal. The mechanisms related to the initial stages of the nucleation and growth mechanism of cadmium have been studied as a function of different potential steps. Within(...)
