In a country like India that houses 51 percent of anemic women and children, measuring hemoglobin efficiently is a costly job. Having said so, this former IITian has bridged the gap between innovation and entrepreneurship with his Hemoglobin measurement device Hemometer. Wrig Nanaosytem was formed in late 2014 after two-and-a-half years of rigorous product development.
"It is a pocket size device that operates through Pattern Pending technology, increasing the accuracy and fastens hemoglobin count in just 8 microlitre of blood sample," explains Ambar Srivastava.
