Petra Biosystems was founded at the IIT Madras Research Park with a vision to tackle some of the most pressing and unresolved challenges in healthcare. Recognizing the critical need for timely and precise patient monitoring in intensive care, our founders set out to create a platform that empowers clinicians with actionable insights in real time. Supported by Petra Group, a company dedicated to solutions for humanity, Petra Biosystems combines scientific rigor with entrepreneurial drive. From the very beginning, our goal has been to translate cutting-edge microfluidic and biomedical technologies into tools that can meaningfully improve patient outcomes, especially in critical care settings where every second counts.
Detects physiological changes early, enabling faster and more effective interventions.
Provides continuous monitoring and clear trend visualization for informed clinical decisions.
Measures multiple biomarkers simultaneously from a single sample, enhancing efficiency.
Compact, automated, and designed to integrate with existing critical care workflows without disruption.
Real-time monitoring at a glance — improving diagnosis and supporting immediate patient care.
Useful for broader understanding of gasotransmitters in health.
Reduces sepsis detection time from days to minutes.
Operates under real-world hospital environments.
Portable and designed for bedside or emergency use.
Accurately detects gasotransmitter levels in patient blood
Petra Biosystems’ microfluidic platform is designed to provide continuous, real-time monitoring of critical biomarkers, enabling clinicians to make faster, more informed decisions. By addressing gaps in current diagnostic methods, our technology supports a wide range of applications in healthcare, from intensive care units to clinical research and future personalized medicine initiatives.
The platform integrates seamlessly into ICU workflows, offering continuous bedside monitoring that reduces the need for repeated blood draws while providing a comprehensive view of patient health.
In high-pressure emergency or trauma settings, rapid decision-making is crucial. Real-time biomarker monitoring supports faster triage and targeted treatment, helping clinicians prioritize critical interventions.
Our technology also serves as a powerful research tool for studying disease progression, evaluating new therapies, and validating biomarkers. Multiplexed measurement capabilities allow researchers to collect robust, high-resolution data in real time.
