Genetic Variability Induced by Gamma Radiation in Cowpea [(Vigna unguiculata L. (Walp)] in Burkina Faso
Karidiatou Gnankambary, Teyoure Benoit Joseph Batieno, Nerbewende Sawadogo, Mahamadou Sawadogo, Jean Baptiste Tignegre, Djibril Yonli, Tinga Jeremy Ouedraogo
Cowpea is a good source of protein, minerals, and vitamins in most developing countries in Africa. However, this legume production is still limited by various biotic and abiotic constraints. Beyond these constraints, the pressure of conventional breeding methods on natural variability exhausted a narrow genetic base of cowpea. Therefore, it is(...)

Problems of interpretation of serum electrophoresis related to the manual phase during its realization with a semi-automatic automaton
Raoul Karfo, Elie Kabré, Nadia Safir, Mounya Bouabdellah, Laila Benchekroun, Jean Sakandé, Layachi Chabraoui
Manual steps including preparation of samples and gel, and launching of automatic sequences can cause many difficulties in the interpretation of electrophoresis. Three observations of electrophoretic profiles on Hydragel 15β1-β2 agarose gel media led us to look for interference in the manual step of the technique used. After reconsidering all(...)
