Sensitive electrochemical determination of sunset yellow in soft drinks using geopolymer-modified carbon paste electrode
Raïssa Tagueu Massah, Amidou Tall, Boukaré Kaboré, Yssouf Karanga, Wendwaoga Ibrango, Lynn Myllyam Beleuk à Moungam, Evangeline Njanja, Issa Tapsoba, Ignas Kenfack Tonle
A volcanic ash-based geopolymer (GPVA) was used to design an electrochemical sensor for the determination of sunset yellow (SY) in nonalcoholic juices. After the preparation and characterization of the geopolymer material, it was used to modify a carbon paste electrode (GPVA-CPE). The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) characterizati(...)

Are freshwater stoneflies (Plecoptera) endangered in the West African Sahel region?
IDRISSA KABORE, ADAMA OUEDA, OTTO MOOG, ANDREAS MELCHER
Stoneflies are valuable indicators of ecological health and play a crucial role in maintaining the biodiversity of West Africa, but the research on Stoneflies species are still very insipid and sparse. By understanding their distribution patterns, we can develop effective strategies to conserve these important insects and ensure the sustainabi(...)

Physiological Responses and Productivity Assessment of Sorghum-Leguminous Association Cropping Systems in the Sudan-Sahelian Zone of Burkina Faso, West Africa
Sawadogo T, Bazié H. R, Bazié P, Sanon Z, Zombré G.
Optimizing farming systems is essential to boost productivity in Sudano-Sahelian zones, particularly in the face of challenges posed by climate change and soil degradation. This research explores the effects of sorghum-mungbean (Vigna radiata) and sorghum-voandzou (Vigna subterranea) intercropping on crop physiology and productivity in a farmi(...)

A field guide for sampling bats (Chiroptera) for eco-epidemiological studies
Shariful Islam, Napoko Malika Kangoyé, Andrés Velasco-Villa, Abdoulaye Hama Diallo, Robab Katani, Luis E. Escobar
Bats serve as reservoir hosts for numerous zoonotic pathogens of public health
significance, including coronaviruses, lyssaviruses, and henipaviruses, while
simultaneously playing critical roles in ecosystem function through pollination,
seed dispersal, and pest control. The increasing frequency of bat-associated disease
outbreaks has(...)

Behavior of potential insect pollinators visiting Moringa oleifera flowers
Babou Frédéric Bazié, Madjelia Cangré Ebou Dao, Salifou Kabré, Olivier Gnankine
The influence of potential insect pollinators is decisive in the fruiting process of many cross-pollinated plants. The aim
of this study was to determine the behaviour of potential pollinating insects visiting Moringa oleifera flowers. Collections were carried out from July to September 2018 and 2019, followed by monitoring of the behavior of(...)
