IIUM-SIRIM-USM-MINT-UKM-MOSTI

GranuMas ™ is an osteoconductive granular synthetic bone graft material based on calcium phosphate hydroxyapatite. It is an excellent alternative material for the repair of bone defects due to its chemical composition being similar to the mineral phase of human bone. It is also chemically similar to the hydroxyapatite that is currently being used clinically as a bioactive coating on many surgical and dental implants such as in the Dental, ENT, Orthopaedics and Maxillofacial specialties.

This product has gone through extensive biocompatibility and safety evaluation and has also demonstrated excellent biofunctionality in clinical trials and successfully screened through various in vitro and in vivo tests, which were all conducted with the collaboration of respectable institutions of higher learning in Malaysia. . Its highly osteoconductive properties promotes good callus formation and the subsequent healing of bone defects.

Roman Transliteration of Arabic Transcript(ROTAS ™)

ROTAS™ is a utility software, designed mainly for academic purposes, that lets a writer/researcher automatically or manually transliterate text from Arabic into English, using the writing-based model of the Arabic orthography. It provides a set of fonts that are fully Unicode complaint. Anyone using Microsoft Office 2000 or later can read a text, composed with ROTAS fonts, undistorted, even without having ROTAS™  fonts.   

Transliteration is a skill that requires special expertise, particularly in the rules of Romanization. To enhance and accelerate the transliteration process, ROTAS™ provides a technique that requires no knowledge of the rules of Romanization, though knowledge of the Arabic grammar will improve the transliteration accuracy.
