FIELD: medicine, gastroenterology.

SUBSTANCE: a patient should be tested, moreover, due to gas-chromatography technique one should detect salivary acetic, propionic and butyric acids and at concentration of any of these acids being: acetic acid above 0.910 mM/l, propionic acid above 0.150 mM/l and butyric acid above 0.013 mM/l one should diagnose chronic gastroduodenitis, and at concentrations of acetic acid ranged above 0.010 to 0.910 mM/l, propionic acid up to 0.150 mM/l and butyric acid up to 0.013 mM/l - functional dyspepsia. The innovation enables to increase objectivity and information value of the method suggested.
