Peptest is the latest non-invasive test for reflux diagnostics worldwide. It is a precise, painless and relatively cheap saliva test, which can provide a reliable proof of the presence of reflux disease.
Pepsin, which is needed for splitting proteins, occurs naturally in the stomach. However, if pepsin also occurs outside the stomach, the individual suffers from reflux. That is why we take samples of saliva and test the presence of pepsin.
Considering the concentration of pepsin in the saliva sample we can determine how severe the reflux is. At the same time the prospects of ensuing treatment are assessed. The test can be carried out again during the treatment.
