Characterization and modeling of the effects of extraction parameters for tannin from the bark of the tropical wood Detarium microcarpum, utilizing the design of experiments method, aimed at exploring its potential application in formulating eco-friendly industrial resins

This work aims to optimize the conditions for extracting tannin from Detarium microcarpum (DM) using a rigorous, well-known methodological approach based on the Design of Experiments (DoE) method in order to maximize the yield and quality of the extracts. This study is the first...

Streamlined durability monitoring of DuraNet® Plus and Interceptor® G2 insecticide-treated nets in Northern Region, Cameroon: assessment results in two sites from 2022 to 2025

Abstract Background Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are a critical vector control and malaria prevention tool. Routine monitoring of ITN physical and chemical durability is key to assessing their performance under real-world conditions. A streamlined ITN durability monitoring met...

A dimension-stone-specific GIS-AHP framework for regional quarry suitability screening in under-mapped Precambrian basement: application to Cameroon’s West Region, Central African Fold Belt

Abstract Dimension stone exploration in crystalline basement terrains requires spatially explicit methods that integrate geological potential with environmental, infrastructural, and regulatory constraints. This study develops a GIS-based multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) f...
