Natural environments like termite mounds can be a reservoir for novel microbial
strains and antimicrobial metabolite producers. Hence, this study aimed to investigate
the antimicrobial activities of bacterial strains isolated from Macrotermes bellicosus
(M. bellicosus) termite mound materials. These materials were sampled from active
te(...)

Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne disease caused by four related but antigenically
distinct dengue viruses. In the last half-century, the prevalence of dengue
fever has increased dramatically (up to 30%) worldwide, especially in
Sub-Saharan Africa. In Burkina Faso, the last dengue epidemic occurred in 2016,
and the epidemiological situation(...)

Ali Haroun Hissein, François Tapsoba, Himeda Makhlouf, Cisse Hama, Abel Tankoano, Hassan Mahamat Ali, Cheikna Zongo, Abdessalam Tidjani, Aly Savadogo
The charmout is a meat product obtained by drying meat and used in the preparation of sauces in some Sahelian countries. However, charmout is produced and sold under unhygienic conditions. It is therefore susceptible to contamination by pathogenic and toxigenic microorganisms. The objective of this study was to isolate and identify bacterial a(...)

Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices Related to Antibiotic Use and Antibiotic Resistance among Poultry Farmers in Urban and Peri-Urban Areas of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Sawadogo Abdallah , Kagambèga Assèta , Moodley Arshnee , Ouedraogo Abdoul Aziz, Barro Nicolas and Dione Michel
Increased use of antibiotics in livestock is a public health concern, as it poses risks of antibiotic residues and antibiotic-resistant pathogens entering the food chains and infecting humans. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 216 poultry farms to study knowledge, attitudes and practices of poultry farmers on the use of antibiotics in(...)

Modelling and optimisation of ultrasound-assisted extraction of roselle phenolic compounds using the surface response method
Abdoudramane Sanou, Kiessoun Konaté, Kaboré kabakdé, Roger Dakuyo, David Bazié, Sama Hemayoro & Mamoudou Hama Dicko
Extracts from Hibiscus sabdarifa L. (roselle) have been used traditionally as a food, in herbal medicine,
in hot and cold beverages, as favouring or coloring agent in the food industry. In vitro and in vivo
studies and trials provide evidence, but roselle is poorly characterised phytochemically due to the
extraction processes. The optimi(...)

G6PD Deficiency and COVID-19 in Burkina Faso: A Possible Link?
Abdoul Karim Ouattara, Lassina Traoré, Tégwendé Rebeca Compaoré, Théodora Mahoukèdè Zohoncon, Jacques Simporé
Burkina Faso is a malaria-endemic country, with a high incidence of G6PD deficiency (G6PDd), which recorded its first case of COVID-19 in March 2020. G6PDd leads to a decrease in the efficiency of erythrocytes to combat oxidative stress, while SARS-CoV-2 infection induces massive production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in patients. In the(...)

General Features of Food Import in Burkina Faso
Diéni I, Bagré TS, Traoré KA, Djibrine MA, Bako Evariste, Soro DK, Nikiema MEM, Tapsoba F, Zongo O, Savadogo EH and Barro N
The flow of food goods from producers and importers to consumers is ensured by a large number of traders, including wholesale and retail. Food imports are a socio-economic fact in Burkina Faso. Due to the structural but also cyclical inadequacy of national production to meet the population’s needs for food, it has seen a significant rise in re(...)

Background
Genetic alterations can result in DNA repair defects, increasing susceptibility to breast cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the involvement of two DNA repair genes, ERCC1 (rs3212986, GenBank NC_000073.9) and ERCC2 (rs1799793, rs13181, GenBank: NC_000019.10) in the occurrence of breast cancer in Burkina Faso.

Trade in vulture parts in West Africa: Burkina Faso may be one of the main sources of vulture carcasses
Clément Daboné, Adama Ouéda, Lindy J. Thompson, Jacques Boco Adjakpa et Peter DM Weesie
The current catastrophic decline in African vultures is caused mainly by poisoning, and killing for consumption and belief-based use (traditional medicine). To find out more about the key threats to vultures in West Africa, we assessed the main anthropogenic causes of vulture mortality in Burkina Faso. We analysed incidents of mass vulture mor(...)
