A test method for smolder resistance of upholstered furniture
… The fabrics were tested and classified by CPSC, Upholstered Furniture Action Council, and modified test methods and procedures. Char lengths were determined to be the most reliable method for classifying flammability of upholstered fabric. A t-test was used to determine differences in char …

Evaluating protein-protein interactions of CpsA, a virulence factor in Group B Streptococcus
… we have confirmed that CpsA interacts with the CpsC protein. Interactions between CpsA and predicted partner CpsE were not supported while interactions between CpsA and CpsY may be transient. Our pull down did not find any of these proteins however, we have identified multiple additional …

Trade flow of U.S. recalled consumer products: a gravity model analysis
This paper examines the hypothesis that the trade flow of recalled products and harm caused by recalled products will conform to economic theory in a similar way as the flow of goods in general. A Bergstrand-based gravity model is used in the analysis. My application uses a novel data set that …
