Abstract
Alarming trend in biodiversity decline has been observed due to anthropogenic drivers, reinforcing the need to identify priority species for conservation. We discuss the prioritisation of species with small distribution sizes for conservation through two often-neglected perspectives: exposure to human-driven threats(...)

Street food plays a major socio-economic role, but its preparation and sale in often rudimentary
hygienic conditions expose it to bacterial contamination, which is a public health concern. This study
aimed to assess the prevalence and antibiotic sensitivity of Salmonella species and Escherichia coli in
food sold in public places in Borom(...)

Introduction: Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli infections represent a major public health
problem, particularly due to the emergence of antibiotic resistance. This study to assess the
prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility of these Enterobacteriaceae in patients admitted to the
Boromo health district in Burkina Faso.
