Caffeine penetration kinetics and Lucifer yellow (LY) permeability modifications induced by these products were compared to those induced by a negative control series (saline solution, code NC) and positive control series (white Vaseline, code V) under neutral and acidic pH conditions.Results: Under neutral and acidic pH conditions, compared to the negative control, all the products tested reduced (> 80% and 85– 90%, respectively) the caffeine passage, and no significant difference was observed among the products tested. Under neutral and acidic conditions, the LY permeabilities registered with device A and device C were not different from that registered with the negative control, while an LY flux% increase was calculated after 2 hrs of treatment (21.1%) with device B under acidic conditions.Conclusion: These results confirm the ability of the products tested to interact with the oesophageal epithelium in order to adhere and create a stable protective film for at least 2 hours after their homogeneous distribution on the epithelium surface. Further clinical studies are needed to test these devices in the topical treatment of gastroesophageal reflux symptoms.Keywords: hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulphate, gastroesophageal reflux disease, antacid, caffeine, Lucifer yellowPellegatta GSpadaccini MLamonaca LCraviotto VD'Amico FCeriotti LMeloni MRepici ADove Medical Pressarticlehyaluronic acidchondroitin-sulphategastroesophageal reflux diseaseantacidcaffeinelucifer yellowMedical technologyR855-855.5ENMedical Devices: Evidence and Research, Vol Volume 13, Pp 57-66 (2020)
