Numerous studies elucidated the kinetics of humoral immune response post-SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, in sub-Saharan Africa, evolution SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody responses and their interaction with pre-existing seasonal human coronavirus (HCoVs: OC43, 229E, NL63, HKU1) immunity remain underexplored. A prospective cohort study was conducted Senegal during first year COVID-19 pandemic (March to December 2020). total 204 patients laboratory-confirmed were included. Patients classified as...
L’objectif de la présente étude était d’évaluer l’activité antioxydante des extraits feuilles Vitex doniana par spectrophotométrie en utilisant les méthodes piégeage radicaux libres 2,2-diphényl-1- picryl-hydrazyle (DPPH•) et acide 2,2’-azino-bis-(3-éthylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonique) (ABTS+•). Une extraction éthanolique a été effectuée au Soxhlet. L’extrait sec recueilli redissout dans l’eau puis fractionné successivement l’hexane, du dichlorométhane l’acétate d’éthyle. Les propriétés...
Pesticides are extensively used by farmers in the Niayes zone of Dakar regardless good agricultural practices as evidenced many authors. Some them were either not registered or banned for use Senegal. This situation raises concerns about environmental impact and human health risks. work aimed to assess presence 21 pesticide molecules selected through a survey soil groundwater. For that purpose, 119 80 groundwater samples collected at four different sites analyzed chromatographic methods....
The aim of this study was to recover metals from the positive electrode material for recycling in lithium-ion batteries. It focused on research optimize hydrometallurgical pretreatment process cathode materials Li-ion batteries by varying parameters such as NaOH concentration, ratio solvent volume mass test sample (liquid-solid (L/S)) and reaction time. Thus, used collected a local market (Colobane, Senegal), cathodic dried an oven at 50°C 24 hours, submitted alkaline leaching with 2, 3 or...
Les plantes traditionnelles présentent généralement de nombreuses propriétés thérapeutiques. L’objectif la présente étude consistait à évaluer l’activité antioxydante des extraits feuilles Aphania senegalensis et Saba par spectrophotométrie moléculaire au moyen méthodes piégeage radicaux libres 2,2-diphényl-1-picryl-hydrazyle (DPPH•) acide 2,2’-azino-bis-(3-éthylbenzothiazoline-6- sulfonique) (ABTS+•). Une extraction éthanolique ces deux a été effectuée Soxhlet. secs, redissouts dans l’eau,...
Les plantes médicinales telles que Moringa oleifera, présentent en général de nombreuses vertus thérapeutiques. L'objectif cette étude était d'évaluer l'activité antioxydante des extraits feuilles oleifera par la méthode piégeage radicaux libres 2,2-diphényl-1- picryl-hydrazyle (DPPH•). Une extraction éthanolique a été effectuée et l'extrait sec obtenu ensuite fractionné séparation liquide-liquide avec solvants polaires (eau distillée acétate d'éthyle) apolaires (dichlorométhane). L'extrait...
La drépanocytose est une hémoglobinopathie largement répandue chez les populations africaines noires. Actuellement, très peu de traitements conventionnels existent sur le marché, d’où recours à la médecine traditionnelle. Maytenus senegalensis plante prescrite par tradipraticiens dans prise en charge drépanocytose. L’activité antifalcémiante des extraits poudre racines a été étudiée ce travail. Après obtention l’extrait hexanique extraction l’aide d’un Soxhlet, marc macéré l’acétate d’éthyle...
This study aimed at validating an analytical method, using the accuracy profile approach, for assay of chlorphenamine maleate by capillary electrophoresis. The validation was done concentrations ranging between 75% and 125% target concentration 600 mg/ml. Validation standards were prepared separately in triplicate each series. Studied criteria selectivity, linearity, trueness, precision (repeatability intermediate precision), limits detection quantification. method selective, with recoveries...
Hibiscus sabdariffa also known as Roselle is a shrub generally measuring between one and two meters in height. After flowering, white or red calyxes appear, depending on the variety. These are highly prized by African populations for production of drinking juice. Thus, this work was initiated to study thermal effects physico-chemical parameters juice obtained. The pH determined using meter, conductivity meter. Polyphenols were quantified ferric chloride reaction Folin-Ciocalteu's reagent....
Methylene blue (MB) is a phenothiazine derivative used in microbiology, surgery, diagnostics and as sensitizer the photo-oxidation of organic pollutants. These numerous uses methylene could lead to its accumulation wastewater, causing harmful effects on environment living beings. To combat these effects, wastewater treatment processes, particularly physicochemical, were implemented. Adsorption techniques are find new natural, biodegradable inexpensive adsorbents treat colored waste from...
We report the synthesis and structures of two transition-metal complexes involving 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)benzimidazole (2hpbi – a ligand interest for its photoluminescent applications), with cobalt, namely, bis[μ-2-(1 H -1,3-benzodiazol-2-yl)phenolato]bis[ethanol(thiocyanato)cobalt(II)], [Co 2 (C 13 9 N O) (NCS) 6 ], ( 1 ), manganese, -1,3-benzodiazol-2-yl)phenolato]bis{[2-(1 -1,3-benzodiazol-2-yl)phenolato](thiocyanato)manganese(III)} dihydrate, [Mn 4 ]·2H O, ).
