PEPTEST is an innovative, non-invasive diagnostic test to help identify reflux, and is especially critical in detecting silent reflux. Based on quantitative lateral flow technology, PEPTEST detects the presence of pepsin in clinical samples from the upper digestive and respiratory tracts.
PEPTEST can be used to help diagnose and direct a wide spectrum of pathological conditions, including GORD (gastroesophageal reflux), LPR (laryngopharyngeal reflux), chronic cough, cystic fibrosis, post-lung transplant rejection, asthma and sinusitis.
