One Health Approach to Study the Occurrence and Antimicrobial Resistance of Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase- and Carbapenemase-Producing and spp. in Urban Agriculture in Burkina Faso.

Data on antimicrobial resistance in Burkina Faso's agricultural sector is still limited. This study assessed the occurrence of extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing (ESBL-) and spp. (ESBL-) in lettuce, environment, and gardeners' stools in market gardens in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae in West Africa.

Background: In Africa, the problem of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is aggravated by many factors. This systematic review attempted to describe the current status of the molecular epidemiology of carbapenem resistance in West Africa (WA).

Methods: Articles published from 16 West African countries on the molecular epidemiology of carbapenem resistance were reviewed.

Molecular characterization of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated in ready-to-eat food sold in supermarkets in Bobo-Dioulasso: case of charcuterie products.

Background: Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the most widespread bacterial pathogens in animals and humans, and its role as an important causative agent of food poisoning is well-documented. The aim of this study was to highlight and characterize the resistance patterns of methicillin-resistant S.

Assessment of probiotic and technological properties of Bacillus spp. isolated from Burkinabe Soumbala.

Background: Soumbala is a highly loved alkaline traditional fermented food condiment in Burkina Faso. It harbors various microbiota dominated by fermentative Bacillus spp. as functional microorganism with little confirmed health-promoting properties.

DETECTION OF DIARRHEAGENIC IN HUMAN DIARRHEIC STOOL AND DRINKING WATER SAMPLES IN OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO.

Background: The presence of diarrheagenic (DEC) in drinking water, is a grave public health problem. This study was aimed at characterization of diarrheagenic isolated from drinking water and faecal samples from diarrheic patients in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.

Materials And Methods: A total of 242 water samples consisting of 182 potable sachets and 60 from boreholes were collected in the period between October 2018 and April 2019 in the city of Ouagadougou.

Technological and microbiological characteristics of indigenous food produced in Gabon.

The purpose of this study was to provide contextual information on indigenous food's technologies and safety from Gabon. The strategic focus being to promote local food with enhanced nutritional value and improved safety. An investigation and monitoring were carried out to elucidate their process flow diagrams and to identify safety failures.

[Effectiveness and cost of management of severe acute malnutrition with complications in Kaya, Burkina Faso].

Introduction: The consequences of severe acute malnutrition are measured in terms of health and survival, but also of cognitive development, its productivity and the overall national economy. Its management requires enormous financial resources. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of treating severe acute malnutrition versus cost of treatment of severe acute malnutrition in children.

Assessment of safety and quality of fermented milk of camels, cows, and goats sold and consumed in five localities of Burkina Faso.

Background And Aim: Fermented milk is food produced and consumed all over the world and plays an important role in human nutrition. This work aimed to evaluate the microbiological and physicochemical quality and mineral composition of fermented milk consumed in Burkina Faso.

Materials And Methods: A total of 114 samples of fermented milk from camels, goats, and cows were purchased in the market in five localities in Burkina Faso; Bobo Dioulasso, Djibo, Dori, Gorom-Gorom, and Sebba.

Safety of ready-to-eat chicken in Burkina Faso: Microbiological quality, antibiotic resistance, and virulence genes in isolated from chicken samples of Ouagadougou.

In Burkina Faso, flamed/grilled chickens are very popular and well known to consumers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the microbiological quality, the antibiotic resistance, and the virulence gene from isolated from these chickens in Ouagadougou. A total of 102 grilled, flamed, and fumed chickens were collected in Ouagadougou and analyzed, using standard microbiological methods.
