FUNCTION
USM Tissue Bank provides services involving tissues from living and deceased individuals for transplantation purposes. These services include assessing donor suitability, tissue recovery, tissue processing, testing and sterilization of tissues, preservation, storage, labeling and distribution.
USM Tissue Bank works together with the Ministry of Health in deceased human tissue procurement. Besides supplying deep-frozen allografts such as bone, tendon/ligament and skin, the bank produces other graft substitutes using various processing and preservation methods depending on the surgical disciplines to which they are directed.
The grafts are sterilised by gamma irradiation in Malaysian Nuclear Ageny (Nuklear Malaysia) before they are used or transplanted into human beings.
The tissue grafts have been utilised by medical specialists, surgeons in various fields and dental specialists, in government and private hospitals all over Malaysia, to treat bone, skin and eye diseases.
QUALITY POLICY
We are committed to provide the highest quality and safe tissue grafts and services that meet our customer's expectation and satisfaction.
We are dedicated to comply with regulatory and Shariah requirements, and to maintain the effectiveness of the Quality Management System through continual improvement.
