The first TUTA products were essentially novelties which included cheap plastic sporting and leisure items – even ships in bottles. It was during World War II hostilities that Perspex was invented as one of the first ‘plastics’. This became an important military commodity. Rose had first- hand experience of Perspex and was quick to see that there was a future in plastics. He was open to other ways his company’s knowledge of this new field could be exploited. Up until that time, almost everything in medicine was re-usable and laboratory equipment was no exception, despite the obvious biological hazards of re-use. Rose initially developed a plastic Petri dish that was successful and opened the door for TUTA to the world of medicine. He then engaged the services of Len Wisdom, a microbiologist at the University of Melbourne and also a former RAAF pilot, and the company pioneered the development of plastic blood collection and transfusion sets at the request of the Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service, forging strong professional relationships with anaesthetists and haematologists, the legacy of which still remains today. BMDI Limited BMDi Limited was an Australian company formed in 2001 to specialise in the development of products designed to reduce needle stick injuries with a focus on safety injection, collection and needle destruction devices. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Medical Australia Limited」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
