think of one or two products sold in this country that are tested using the scientific method before they are placed on the market and then later found to be dangerous explain how faulty or incomplete testing of a product can become a threat to health and give two specific

Well, I can only think of one example and that would be certain medications. Usually medications are tested in mice (it diverted a few years earlier, but still share over 90% of genetic similarity). You have to follow the scientific method to test the effectiveness of such to treat and/or prevent certain disorders. Faulty or incomplete testing is highly unlikely, for the scietific community today is very thorough during the experimentation process; however, there has been certain medications that have resulted in severe secondary or side effects. For example steroids.. Steroids are helpful in the treatment of allergic reactions or other autoimmune diseases; however, it has been shown (in horses as well as in humans) that it reduces fertility by lowering testosterone concentrations in the blood plasma and it slows down its production. Low testosterone results in decreased counts of sperm and abnormal morphology of the cells. Other problems include liver problems and hypercholesterolemia.

Hope this helps

There are some interesting cases where the scientific method was used, but there were some things that were left non-studied, like medicine or paint.

The first example is paint with cancerigenous materials. At the moment, using the scientific method they found that it was actually very good as paint, but they never used the scientific method with health/safety in mind. Thus, eventually, they find that these paints were harmful, and they needed to remove it. Here the problem as you can see, is that they did not test enough.

A similar case is the one of some medicaments. Something really interesting about them is that things like the temperature at which you crystalize the components is really important for the effects of the medicine. And, if you don't know this (because you never tested it) you can end having problems, for example, if a given medicine was developed in the north, with lower temperatures, and then you want to replicate in the south, the effects of these two can be different. From this, we can conclude that when you test something, all the variables should be checked.
