Pooda SH, Moiroux N, Porciani A, Courjaud A-L, Roberge C, Gaudriault G, Sidibé I, Belem AMG, Rayaissé J-B, Dabiré KR, Mouline K
Domesticated animals play a role in maintaining residual transmission of Plasmodium parasites of humans, by offering alternative blood meal sources for malaria vectors to survive on. However, the blood of animals treated with veterinary formulations of the anti‐helminthic drug ivermectin can have an insecticidal effect on adult malaria vector(...)

Prevalence of Multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica and associated factors among under five children with diarrhea in rural Burkina Faso
Réné Dembélé, Ali Konaté, Issiaka Soulama, Assèta Kagambèga, Wendpoulomdé A.D. Kaboré, Haoua Cissé, Oumar Traoré, Alfred S. Traoré and Nicolas Barro
Salmonella enterica is one of the major enteric pathogen causing diarrhea among children under 5 years worldwide. In rural settings
of Burkina Faso where this infection is strongly associated with the consumption of contaminated food and water, the antimicrobial
resistant patterns of Salmonella circulating in these areas are currently not we(...)

Resistance of Klebsiella Sp to Ceftazidime Associated with the Production of β-lactamase Enzymes at the Saint Camille Hospital in Ouagadougou (Hosco)
Pegdwende Rose Bonkoungou, Sidnooma Veronique Zongo, Damis Patrik Bouniounou, Amana Metuor Dabire, Mahoukede Theodora Zohoncon
Enterobacteriaceae resistant to β-lactam include Escherichia coli and Klebsiella sp. Multiresistance to antibiotics in Enterobacteriaceae and in particular in Klebsiella sp is constantly evolving. Klebsiella is characterized by natural resistance to aminos and carboxypenicillins. Ceftazidime is a 3rd generation cephalosporin active on Gram-neg(...)
