Background: Dihydrogen (H2) is produced endogenously by the intestinal microbiota through the fermentation of diet carbohydrates. Over the past few years, numerous studies have demonstrated the significant therapeutic potential of H2 in various pathophysiological contexts, making the characterization of its production in laboratory species of major preclinical importance.
Methods: This study prop

Medical use of hydrogen gas (H2) has been given increasing attention over the past 15 years with numerous
clinical trials for a variety of indications. The biological activity of H2 includes antioxidant properties and
thereby the ability to neutralize damaging reactive oxygen species (ROS). Administration of hydrogen as a
medical gas is limited by the poor water solubility and by the flammability

Background: Mounting evidence indicates that hydrogen gas (H2) is a versatile therapeutic agent, even at very low, non-combustible concentrations. The Chinese National Health and Medical Commission recently recommended the use of inhaled H2 in addition to O2 therapy in the treatment of COVID-19-associated pneumonia, and its effects extend to anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions.

We have developed Si-based agent which can generate a large amount of hydrogen. Si-based agent continues generating hydrogen for more than 24 h by the reaction with water under conditions similar to those in bowels, i.e., pH8.3 and 36 °C, and generates ~400 mL hydrogen. To investigate beneficial effects for diseases associated with oxidative stress, Si-based agent is administered to remnant kidney
