Simon P. Sawadogo1*, Achille S. Nikièma1, Sanata Coulibaly1, Lassane Koala1, Abdoulaye Niang1, Clarisse Bougouma2, Roland W. Bougma2, Olivier Gnankine3, Frances M. Hawkes4, Daniel Boakye5 and Roch K. Dabiré
In the drive towards elimination of lymphatic filariasis, enhanced surveillance of vector mosquitoes
requires sound sampling methods which can be easily implemented and accepted by communities.
Several tools have been validated as alternatives to human landing catches (HLC) for this purpose, but
little is known about their effectiveness com(...)

Reinforcing locally led solutions for universal health coverage : a logic model with applications in Benin, Namibia, and Uganda
Joël Arthur Kiendrébéogo, Andrea Thoumi, Keith Mangam, Cheickna Touré, Seyni Mbaye, Patricia Odero, Edward Owino, Claire Jones, Grace Ssali Kiwanuka, Zilper Audi, Danielle Bloom, Amelia Kinter, Allison Gamble Kelley
Development assistance for health programmes is often characterised as donor-led models with minimal country ownership and limited sustainability. This article presents new ways for low-income and middle-income countries to gain more control of their development assistance programming as they move towards universal health coverage (UHC). We ba(...)

Anti-quorum sensing and anti-biofilm activities of Securidaca longepedunculata Fresen, an endangered species from Burkina Faso
ssa Karama, Vincent Ouedraogo, Ablassé Rouamba, Moussa Compaoré and Martin Kiendrebeogo
The emergence of bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a serious challenge to the global health system. The QS inhibition is one of the approaches to fight against antibiotic resistance in bacteria. Securidaca longepedunculata is a medicinal plant that roots are the only organ used against microbial diseases. This species is threatened with e(...)

Climate influence on the distribution of the yellow plum ( Ximenia Americana L.) in Burkina Faso
Ounyambila Lompo , Kangbéni Dimobe, Elisée Mbayngone, Salfo Savadogo, Oumarou Sambaréa , Adjima Thiombiano, AmadéOuédraogo
Yellow plum ( Ximenia americana L.) is an indigenous and multipurpose tree species widely used in West Africa and especially in Burkina Faso. Most of the species’ organs are mainly used for traditional medicine in rural communities. Despite its high use value, little is known about the species distribution pattern. This study aims to assess th(...)

EXPÉRIMENTATION ET ANALYSE THERMIQUE D’UN CONCENTRATEURHÉMISPHÉRIQUE STATIONNAIRE SOUS LES CONDITIONS CLIMATIQUES ÀOUGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO
Ouédraogo Salifou, Ky Thierry S. M., Konfé Amadou, Kam Sié, Bathiébo D. Joseph
Les concentrateurs solaires constituent une technologie adaptée à l’exploitationde l’énergie solaire à haute température mais aussi à des températuresintermédiaires. Cette technologie est utilisée dans le séchage, le chauffage d’eausanitaire ou dans la production d’électricité. Cependant elle utilise un systèmede traque solaire qui est trop co(...)

Experimental Study of a Stationary Hot Air Solar Collector Built with Hemispherical Concentrators and Enhanced with Fresnel Lenses
Thierry S. M. Ky, Salifou Ouedraogo, Moctar Ousmane, Boureima Dianda, Emmanuel Ouedraogo and Dieudonné J. Bathiebo
Aims: This paper is about a solar collector made of hemispherical concentrators. This collector is sun tracking free, and used for natural convection. Lenses are used on top of each concentrator to improve its efficiency. Study Design: The Solar collector is made of hemispherical Concentrators with Fresnel lenses axially-centered to those conc(...)

Water Resources in the Sahel and Adaptation of Agriculture to Climate Change: Burkina Faso
Babacar Lèye, Cheick Oumar Zouré, Roland Yonaba and Harouna Karambiri
In West Africa, a shift in climate conditions since the 1970s is evidenced by a decrease in average annual rainfall and an increase in temperatures between 1931–1960 and 1968–1990. The latter period was followed by a rainfall recovery since the late 1990s in the western Sahel. The prolonged rainfall deficits of the twentieth century have, howe(...)

Occurrence, behaviour and environmental risk assessment of trace metals in stream sediments from southwestern Burkina Faso, West Africa.
Aboubakar Sako, Mamadou Nimi, Sâga Sawadogo, Abdoul-Azize Kafohé Héma
In this study, the influence of source area weathering and provenance on the stream sediment geochemistry as well as the environmental impacts of selected potentially toxic trace elements (PTE) were evaluated. Four components derived from the R-mode factor analysis of additive logratio-transformed data pointed to the combined influence of weat(...)

DIFFERENTIAL AND COMPARATIVE SCREENING OF COWPEA VARIETIES TO Striga gesnerioides (WILLD.) VATKE FOR RACE SPECIFIC IDENTIFICATION IN BURKINA FASO
P. SAWADOGO, T.J. OUEDRAOGO, Z. DIENI, T.B.J. BATIENO1, N. SAWADOGO, S.L. PODA, H. ZONGO, K. GNANKAMBARY, J.B.S. TIGNEGRE, M. SAWADOGO
Significant efforts have been made to develop cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) varieties resistant to Striga gesnerioides in Burkina Faso. Despite these efforts, the resistant genotypes developed still express differential responses to Striga gesnerioides in different zones of the country. This suggests existence of intraspecific var(...)

Sterilization methods of liposomes: Drawbacks of conventional methods and perspectives
Kouka Luc Delma, Anna Lechanteur, Brigitte Evrard, Rasmané Semdé, Géraldine Piel
Liposomes are targeted drug delivery systems that are of great pharmaceutical and therapeutic interest.
Parenteral route is the main way used for liposome administration. In this case, their sterility is a requirement.
However, due to the particular sensitivity of liposomes and their tendency to physicochemical alterations, their
sterilizat(...)

Exploitation du spectre de l’étoile hd149382 : Approximation des paramètres physiques par une technique d’analyse spectrale
Bado Fabrice *, Kam Sié Zacharie, Ouédraogo Tongonmanegde Léonard, Sougoti Moussa, Zongo Sidiki, Koulidiati Jean, and Béré Antoine
The determination of physical parameters such as effective temperature, surface gravity, luminosity, and radius of a star requires an adequate analysis of its spectroscopic readings. In this paper, the main aim is to determine the physical parameters of the star HD149382 from its spectrum. Our indirect method consists in determining the half-h(...)

Les tumeurs intrarachidiennes sont peu fréquentes. Leur diagnostic positif est basé sur l´imagerie médicale surtout l´IRM. L´anatomopathologie apporte la certitude du diagnostic. La chirurgie est le traitement de choix pour la plupart d´entre elles. Le pronostic est fonction de la nature histologique et de l´état clinique initial du patient. N(...)
