Evaluation of the effectiveness of some local plant extracts in improving the quality of unsafe water consumed in developing countries
Frédéric Anderson Konkobo, Paul Windinpsidi Savadogo, Mamounata Diao, Roger Dakuyo and Mamoudou Hama Dicko
This study highlights the possibility of using plant extracts as biocoagulants to replace aluminum sulfate in the process of raw water potabilization. For this purpose, nine plants were identified by an investigation and their effectiveness was evaluated in the laboratory by coagulation/flocculation on surface waters. Out of the nine plants id(...)

Mechanisms of action of Akanthomyces lecanii on peanut rust: Ultrastructural investigations
Tounwendsida Abel Nana · Kadidia Koita · Elise Sanon · Philippe Sankara
Peanut rust caused by Puccinia arachidis
is one of the most important peanut foliar diseases in
the world, particularly in Burkina Faso. For sustainable
peanut production, ecological disease management
strategies are needed to limit the overuse of synthetic
fungicides in the control of peanut rust. Thus,
the use of Akanthomyces lecanii,(...)

Metagenomic Analysis of the Abundance and Composition of Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Hospital Wastewater in Benin, Burkina Faso, and Finland
Markkanen MA,Haukka K,Pärnänen KMM, Dougnon VT, Bonkoungou IJO, Garba Z, Tinto H, Sarekoski A, Karkman A,Kantele A, Virta MPJ,
Antibiotic resistance is a global threat to human health, with the most severe effect in low- and middle-income countries. We explored the presence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in the hospital wastewater (HWW) of nine hospitals in Benin and Burkina Faso, two low-income countries in West Africa, with shotgun metagenomic sequencing. For(...)

Effects of Fruits of Aqueous Extract of Sarcocephalus Latifolius B. on Gentamicin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Rats
DA Filkpièrè Léonard, BALLO Mahamadou, SOUDRE Albert, TINDANO Basile, BAH Sékou, BAYALA Balé
Inflammation is a reaction of the body whenever the integrity of its morphological and biological constants is threatened. All diseases affecting the great vital functions imply in their manifestation inflammation mediators. For the treatment, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and glucocorticoids are used. Although efficient, NSAI(...)
