Hydrogeochemical and pollution characterization of a shallow glauconitic sandstone aquifer in a peri‑urban setting of Bobo‑Dioulasso, southwestern Burkina Faso.
Aboubakar Sako, Sâga Sawadogo, Mamadou Nimi, Mahamadou Ouédraogo
Groundwater resources are often exposed to multiple sources of pollution, which may make them unfit for human consumption. As a result, comprehensive geochemical studies on groundwater status and evolution are required for a sustainable management of water resources. In the present study, 38 water samples from hand-dug wells were collected in(...)

Temperature Effect on Light Concentration Silicon Solar Cell’s Operating Point and Conversion Efficiency
Mahamadi Savadogo, Boubacar Soro, Ramatou Konate, Idrissa Sourabié, Martial Zoungrana, Issa Zerbo, Dieudonné Joseph Bathiebo
It is well known that temperature acts negatively on practically all the parameters of photovoltaic solar cells. Also, the solar cells which are subjected to particularly very high temperatures are the light concentration solar cells and are used in light concentration photovoltaic systems (CPV). In fact, the significant heating of these solar(...)

The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the promoter region of MMP-1 (at 1607 bp) and MMP-3 (at 1171 bp) create Ets binding sites. Correlations between these SNPs and sensitivity to several biological processes such as metastasis and recurrence of cancer have been reported in several studies.
In this case-control study, we looked for thes(...)

Patterns for African smart cities semantic data integration
Ferdinand Guinko
Smart communities and cities is a topic widely presented in the scientific litterature. Numerous works have
been done presenting the concept of smart city. But there is still a need concerning the matter of data integration in smart communities and cities. In this paper, we have presented the Users application layer pattern, the Integration m(...)

Arsenic removal with zero-valent iron filters in Burkina Faso: Field and laboratory insights
Anja Bretzler, Julien Nikiema, Franck Lalanne, Lisa Hoffmann, Jagannath Biswakarma, Luc Siebenaller, David Demange, Mario Schirmer, Stephan J. Hug
Groundwater contaminated with geogenic arsenic (As) is frequently used as drinking water in Burkina Faso, despite adverse health effects. This study focused on testing low-cost filter systems based on zero-valent iron (ZVI), which have not yet been explored in West Africa for As removal. The active ZVI bed was constructed using small sized iro(...)

Quelques paramètres physiologiques et constituants biochimiques des organes de la lentille de terre (Macrotyloma geocarpum) en conditions de stress hydrique
Mberdoum Memti NGUINAMBAYE, Rasmata NANA, I. Alain DJINET et Zoumbiessé TAMINI
La lentille de terre est une espèce en voie de disparition car sa culture demeure rudimentaire et traditionnelle. Aucun effort n’est fait pour améliorer cette culture. C’est pourquoi, elle n’occupe pas une place particulière en Afrique comme d’autres cultures vivrières. Ainsi, l’étude a consisté d’une part, à évaluer l’effet de stress sur le t(...)
