The mosquitocidal activity of isoxazoline derivatives afoxolaner, lotilaner, and fluralaner are not affected by mosquito sugar or antibiotic treatment.
Harouna Soré, Wamdaogo Moussa Guelbeogo, Soumanaba Zongo, Judith M. Bolscher, Nicolas Ouédraogo, Adama Gansané, Teun Bousema, Katharine A. Collins & Koen J. Dechering
Long-lasting insecticidal nets and indoor residual sprays have played a major role in significantly reducing the burden of malaria. However, the management of mosquitoes resistant to current insecticides continues to be challenging. A promising new strategy is drug-based vector control where drugs are administered to vector hosts (human/animal(...)

Antimicrobial activity of paired combinations of the essential oils of Cymbopogon citratus, Cymbopogon giganteus, and Lippia multiflora on Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli in roselle and tamarind-based drinks
Hamed Sawadogo , Judicaël Thomas Ouilly et Imaël Henri Nestor Bassolé
This study was designed to assess the antimicrobial properties of the paired combinations of the
essential oils (EOs) of Cymbopogon citratus, Cymbopogon giganteus, and Lippia multiflora on Listeria
monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli in roselle and tamarind drinks. The
chemical composition of the EOs was characterized(...)

Local perceptions of ginger ( Zingiber officinale Roscoe) crop management in Burkina Faso
Korotimi Deme, Moumouni Konate, Mahamadi Hamed Ouedraogo, Lardia Ali Bougma, Mahamadou Sawadogo
Ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc., Zingiberaceae) is a highly profitable crop of great interest to growers and processors. However, there is an insufficiency of knowledge about the production practices implemented in the main production areas. This study described farmers' knowledge of ginger diversity, production constraints, tuber conservati(...)

Revisiting the Non-Determinism of Code Generation by the GPT-3.5 Large Language Model
Salimata Sawadogo, Aminata Sabané, Rodrique Kafando, Tegawendé F. Bissyandé
Despite recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) for code generation, their inherent non-determinism remains a significant obstacle for reliable and reproducible software engineering research. Prior work has highlighted the high degree of variability in LLM-generated code, even when prompted with identical inputs. This non-determini(...)

Epidemiological profile of HIV/AIDS at The Outpatient Treatment Centre, Nouakchott, Mauritania, 2010-2019
Mohamedou Hmeied Maham1,2, Pauline Kishwendsida Yanogo2,3, Djibrill Barry2, Yoda Hermann2, Abderrahman Baye6, Boushab Mohamed Boushab2,5, Ousmane Boua Togola2,4, Nicholas Meda2,3.
In response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic, many countries have established surveillance systems
to collect data to monitor disease progression and the impact of control measures. In Mauritania,
HIV/AIDS surveillance data are collected and stored at the Outpatient Treatment Centre in the AMNIR
CHIVA database. We analyzed the database to establish(...)

Synergy and Mechanism of the Action of the Combination of Essential Oils and Antibiotics Against Antibiotic-Resistant Food Borne Disease Bacteria in Burkina Faso
Paul Sodéré , Marius K Somda , Luc Zongo , Henriette B Mihin, Iliassou Mogmenga , Agbémébia Y Akakpo, Mamoudou H Dicko
Background: Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is an important developing threat for human health. Therefore, searching for
alternatives through the synergistic combination of essential oils with conventional antibiotics is one of the relevant approaches.
This study aims to investigate the mechanism of action of essential oils isolated from(...)

Agro-morphological and molecular evaluations of local cowpea varieties (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) at the Saria research station in Burkina Faso
Hamadou Sidibe, Fanta Razacswendé Ouedraogo, Boureima Sakande, Wend- Denda Firmin Ilboudo, Pierre Kabore, Pasteur Y. Etienne Bazie et Mahamadou Sawadogo
Local varieties could be a source of genetic variability. For this reason, six varieties were evaluated for agromorphological and molecular variability. A randomized Fisher's complement block with three replications was used. Pod pigmentation, seed size, stem habit and hilum color showed a difference in at least one of the 5
varieties. Statis(...)

Physicochemical and Mineralogical Characterizations of Two Natural Laterites from Burkina Faso: Assessing Their Potential Usage as Adsorbent Materials
Corneille Bakouan, Louise Chenoy, Boubié Guel, and Anne-Lise Hantson
In the framework of lateritic material valorization, we demonstrated how the geological environment determines the mineralogical characterizations of two laterite samples,
KN and LA. KN and LA originate from the Birimian and Precambrian environments, respectively. We showed that the geological criterion alone does not determine the applicabil(...)

EXISTENCE AND UNIQUENESS OF SOLUTION FOR THE ADVECTION-DIFFUSION EQUATION WITH A FRACTIONAL LAPLACIAN OPERATOR
MARTIN NITIEMA, THOMAS TINDANO, DAOUDA PARE
We consider an advection-diffusion problem involving a fractional Laplace operator of order
0 < s < 1. First, we give the preliminaries that will be used in the following to prove the existence of the
solution to the problem under consideration using Lions’ theorem. Finally, we show that this solution is
unique.
