Purification and Characterization of Sweet Potato (Ipomoea Batatas) Peroxidase.
Mamounata Diao, Brice N’cho Ayékoué, Crépin I. Dibala, Soumaïla Dabonné and Mamoudou H. Dicko
Peroxidase (POX), a biotechnologically important enzyme was purified from bulb of Ipomoea batatas and characterized for use in the bioconversion of phenolic compounds from industrial wastewater. Purified peroxidase (POXp) was obtained using the gel-filtration chromatography and anion exchange chromatography. A final yield of 18 % was obtained(...)

Isolation and Characterization of hydrocarbondegrading Bacteria from Wastewaters in Ouagadougou,Burkina Faso
Sawadogo Adama, Otoidobiga C.Hamonie, Sawadogo B. Joseph, Kaboré Aminata, Traoré S. Alfred, Dianou Dayéri
Lubricants are very often found in nature under waste-oil forms and represent for the environment a real danger of pollution due to the difficulty of their biodegradation. The situation is especially worrying in most developing countries in particular those of Sub-Saharan Africa due to the absence of regulation or control. The present work aim(...)

Studies in the Evaluation of Unconventional Oils from Burkina Faso Rich in Linoleic Acid, Oleic Acid or Other Unusual Fatty Acids
BAZONGO Patrice, Bassole IHN, Soren Nielsen, Mamoudou H. DICKO and Vijai KS Shukla
A study on unconventional seed oils from Burkina Faso was carried out to determine their potential usefulness. The highest oil content was obtained with Marantes polyandra (55.0%) and the lowest with Detarium microcarpum seed oil (12.0%). Linoleic and oleic acids were the most dominant fatty acids of Balanites aegyptiaca, Combretum aculeatum,(...)

Correlates of Product Quality of Soumbala, a West African Non-timber Forest Product
M. Kronborg, J.B. Ilboudo, I.H.N. Bassolé, A.S. Barfod, H.W. Ravn, and A.M. Lykke
Knowledge of the correlates of product quality is a prerequisite for further commercialization of soumbala, a food
product extracted from the leguminous tree Parkia biglobosa (Jacq.) G. Don. In this study qualitative and quanti-
tative data derived from interviews of producers and expert users are used to estimate the influence of P. biglo-(...)

Diversité et structure des cordons ripicoles le long de la sirba (Nord-Est du Burkina Faso).
Elice KABORE *, Oumarou SAMBARE, Amadé OUEDRAOGO et Adjima THIOMBIANO
Les Cordons ripicoles sont des végétations bordant les rivières à écoulement temporaire et qui
possèdent des sols riches et une grande capacité en bois. Ces ressources sont anarchiquement utilisées par
l’homme créant ainsi la fragmentation des berges. Cette étude s’inscrit dans le cadre d’une évaluation de la
diversité et de la structure de(...)
