MARQUAT GENIE BIOMEDICAL

What MARQUAT GENIE BIOMEDICAL does

Marquat Génie Biomédical SAS is a French specialty medical device manufacturer founded in 1884 by Jean Eynard (originally as Maison J. Eynard) and renamed in the mid-20th century by Jean Marquat, grandson of the founder. The company designs, manufactures, and sells single-use diagnostic catheters across four clinical specialties: gastroenterology (esophageal, anorectal, colonic, and small-bowel manometry catheters), urology (urodynamic assessment catheters), respiratory function testing (esophageal pressure catheters for pulmonary compliance), and resuscitation (atraumatic tracheal suction catheters). The product portfolio also includes digestive surgery devices (Sengstaken-Blakemore tubes, biliary tract catheters) and a pediatric nasal probe for cystic fibrosis diagnosis. All products are manufactured in cleanroom facilities at the company's headquarters in Boissy-Saint-Léger near Paris and are ISO 13485 certified and CE marked.

The company's core technology is focused on multi-lumen pressure measurement catheters with precise perfusion port spacing, graduated markings, and purpose-built balloon configurations tailored to specific anatomical and clinical measurement requirements. Several flagship products (Arhan catheter, C76U esophageal pressure catheter, A06S tracheal suction catheter) were co-developed with leading French practitioners and tertiary hospitals including Hôpital Necker, Pitié-Salpêtrière, and Raymond Poincaré. The company holds no patents and has no disclosed AI, software, or digital product components.

Marquat operates a direct B2B sales model, supplying France's major public hospitals and private healthcare centers. Customer inquiries are handled through a website contact form with 24-48 hour response times. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; quotes are provided on request. The company has no external funding, no disclosed headcount, and no international sales infrastructure beyond a multi-language website (French, English, German, Italian). It remains a family-owned private company serving a niche French clinical market.

Products and services

• Esophageal Manometry Catheters (C58U, C79U, C59U) Multi-channel graduated single-use catheters used in hospital gastroenterology departments for esophageal pressure recording through perfused ports. C58U is a 4-channel adult catheter with 5 cm spacing; C79U is a 4-channel pediatric catheter with 3 cm (child) or 1.5 cm (infant) spacing; C59U is a 6-channel catheter with 3 ports at the LES and 3 ports spaced 5 cm apart.
• Anorectal Manometry Catheters (C54U, C66U, C69U, C91AU) Single-use graduated catheters for recording anal sphincter and rectal pressures via perfused water. The Arhan catheter (C54U) records anorectal motility at three levels with distension and annular balloons. C66U is a 5-channel catheter with a 200 ml distension balloon; C69U is a pediatric 4-channel catheter; C91AU is a 7-channel adult catheter graduated over 15 cm with central air-filled distension balloon up to 500 ml.
• Anorectal Manometry and Rectal Compliance Catheters (C55U, C56U, C74U) Single-use 2 to 5-channel catheters that measure rectal compliance (elasticity coefficient, rectometrogram, viscoelastic coefficients) alongside anal motility. C74U enables combined manometry and compliance in one examination via two balloon channels and three perfused ports spaced 4, 9, and 10 cm from the distal end.
• Colonic, Small-Bowel and Antroduodenal Manometry Catheters (C70U, C73U, C72U) Single-use weighted-tip multi-channel catheters for pressure measurement along the colon (C70U, 12 ports spaced 10 cm), small bowel (C73U, 6 ports), and antroduodenal region (C72U, 6 ports across stomach and duodenum) to assess simultaneous and successive movements from stomach to proximal jejunum.
• C624 Radiopaque Markers (Transi-Mark) Single-use radiopaque marker capsules ingested every 24 hours for 6 consecutive days, with CTT calculated on day 7 via KUB radiograph. Available in cubic shapes (C624C, C624-C6 Transi-Mark) and disc shapes (C624R). Supplied in 6-capsule blister packs or 100-capsule sachets.
• Urodynamic Cystomanometry Catheters (U10S, U11S, C96U) Single-use urology catheters for urodynamic assessment. U10S is a 2-way catheter for bladder and urethral pressure measurement; U11S is a 3-way catheter adding a filling lumen; C96U is a rectal catheter for recording abdominal pressure to differentiate bladder or abdominal pathology. Each is a transparent PVC catheter with Luer connectors.
• C76U Esophageal Pressure Catheter and Balloons Thin polyethylene single-use catheter with latex balloon for measuring esophageal pressure to assess lung compliance and perform transdiaphragmatic measurements in respiratory function testing. Available with 50 ml, 80 ml, and 120 ml balloons (C76050U, C76080U, C76120U). Designed for easy nasal insertion.
• C120PVCS Sengstaken-Blakemore Tube Single-use graduated catheter with gastric aspiration channel and two secondary channels for esophageal and gastric balloon inflation, used in emergency for treatment of esophageal hemorrhages.
• C37S Biliary Tract Catheter Sterile single-use catheter used via the transcystic route during surgery for radiological control of biliary ducts via cholangiography. Allows introduction of contrast product into cystic and choledochal canals via semi-rigid PVC with an obturable Luer tip.
• I0202US Nasal Probe for Nasal Potential Difference Sterile single-use PVC nasal probe used to measure nasal potential difference at the inferior turbinate relative to a reference electrode, supporting confirmation or exclusion of cystic fibrosis diagnosis and evaluation of treatment efficacy.
• A06S Atraumatic Beveled Tracheal Suction Catheter Sterile latex single-use catheter with a beveled distal end for non-traumatic airway clearance in tracheostomized patients. Available in 6 diameters ranging from 2.6 mm to 6 mm.
