Technical Efficiency of Australian Wool Production: Point and Confidence Interval Estimates [PDF]

open access: yes
A balanced panel of data is used to estimate technical efficiency, employing a fixed-effects stochastic frontier specification for wool producers in Australia. Both point estimates and confidence intervals for technical efficiency are reported.

A Two‐Step Procedure for Generating Domestic and Asymmetric Trade Costs When Data Are Scarce

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The practice of domestic trade cost measurement faces several challenges related to data quality, methodology and theory; but the major issue is that of data scarcity. Due to these facts, both domestic and asymmetric trade costs have been ignored despite being a feature of modern trade models.

Magnetic Particle‐Based Thin‐Channel Analysis for Separation and Bioanalysis: From SPLITT Fractionation to Immunoassays

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Thin‐channel magnetic analytical platforms integrate magnetically controlled transport with confined laminar flow to enable quantitative bioanalysis. By coupling field‐induced migration with outlet fractionation, particle deposition, or affinity capture, these platforms merge SPLITT separation, magnetophoresis, and magnetic immunoassays.
