In Burkina Faso, the Palmyra Palm Borassus aethiopum Mart. grows wild and gives natural stands in Central-Eastern and Eastern regions. The sap collected traditionally ferments spontaneously and is a rich medium that allows the growth of different microorganisms. This study aimed to identify yeasts and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from B(...)

Charcoal- or wood-cooked chicken is a street-vended food in Burkina Faso. In this study,
15 samples of flamed chicken and 13 samples of braised chicken were analyzed for 15 prior-
ity polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with a high-performance liquid chromatography-
fluorescence detector. A face-to-face survey was conducted to assess the(...)

Allometric models for improving aboveground biomass estimates in West African savanna ecosystems
Moussa Ganamé, Philippe Bayen, Issaka Ouédraogo, Larba Hubert Balima, Adjima Thiombiano
West African Sudanian savanna ecosystems greatly contribute to local peoples’ livelihoods and climate change mitigation. Yet, the contribution of these ecosystems to carbon storage remains poorly documented due to the lack of accurate biomass predictive tools. Therefore, biomass allometric models developed at both the species-level and site-le(...)

There is a high prevalence of blood-borne infections in West Africa. This study
sought to determine the seroprevalence of blood-borne infections, including
hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), HIV, and syphilis, in blood
donors in Burkina Faso. Blood donors were recruited from 2009 to 2013 in four
major cities in Burkina F(...)
