More than a dozen suppliers of plastics assembly technology were on hand at The ASSEMBLY Show last fall. Here are just a few examples of what you could have seen on the show floor.
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacterium responsible for many hard-to-treat and life-threatening infections, including pneumonia and blood poisoning.
