COMPAORÉ Cheik Omar Tidiane, MAIGA Ynoussa, NAGALO Issa, SAWADOGO Mamady, ZONGO Sandrine, MIEN Oumarou, NIKIEMA Mahamadi, OUILI Amidou, MOGMENGA Iliassou, OUATTARA Cheik Ahmed Tidiane, MIHELCIC James, OUATTARA S. Aboubakar
Greywater reuse for agricultural irrigation may contribute to reduce pressure on scarce freshwater sources and the use of chemical fertilizers in Sahelian countries. However, treatment methods that reduce the harmful effects of untreated greywater are essential for sustainable agriculture. This study aims to evaluate greywater treatment capaci(...)

Analysis of the nutritional composition and organization of school meals in the province of Kadiogo in Burkina Faso: challenges and prospects
Compaore W. R. Ella Marie Michèle, OUEDRAOGO Ousmane, TIATOU Souho, BENGALY Marcel D., SIMPORE Mamouna P. , DICKO Mamoudou H.
Face aux pénuries alimentaires et à la précarité, les repas scolaires sont un moyen efficace d'encourager les élèves à fréquenter l'école et à y rester, et de lutter contre les carences nutritionnelles. Malheureusement, il existe des goulets d'étranglement à identifier et à résoudre.
L’objectif de l’étude était d’analyser la composition des r(...)

Extent and Structure of Phenotypic Variability in Solenostemon rotundifolius Germplasm from Ghana and Burkina Faso
Ignace Tonde , Romaric Kiswendsida Nanema, Alphonse Tegawende Sawadogo
Solenostemon rotundifolius is a species belonging to the Lamiaceae family. It
is currently one of the minor plants of high socio-economic interest. One of
the limitations to promoting this species in Burkina Faso is the lack of varieties that meet consumers’ demands. Implementing a breeding program is an
important step toward achieving(...)

APOBEC3G Role on HIV Infection in Africa: A Systematic Review
Tegwinde Rebeca Compaore, Abdoul Karim Ouattara, Adama Baguiya, Lassina Traore, Abdou Azaque Zoure, Henri Gautier Ouedraogo, Seni Kouanda, Jacques Simpore
The highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) has allowed people living with HIV to live longer with a better quality of life. However, toxicity and the emergence of drug resistance arise from HAART use. Therefore, new antiretroviral therapy is needed since no cure or vaccine is available against HIV. Virus-host interaction has been prove(...)
