Hydrogen−rich water (HRW) is widely recognized for its growth promoting, antioxidant, and anti−inflammatory properties. However, little is known about the role of HRW in aquaculture. This study aims to investigate how different concentrations of HRW affect the growth performance, digestive ability, antioxidant capacity, mTOR signaling pathway, and gut microbiota of juvenile largemouth bass. We randomly assigned 360 fish (13.73 ± 0.1 g) to three treatments. The control group was maintained in regular water, while the treatment groups were treated with different concentrations of H2 dissolved in water, which were H1 (179.65 ± 31.95 ppb) and H2 (280.65 ± 64.43 ppb), respectively. Through an analysis of the three treatments, it was found that H1 significantly increased the final body weight, weight gain rate, specific growth rate, and survival rate, and reduced the feed conversion ratio (p < 0.05). In addition, the trypsin activity was significantly increased in the intestine (p < 0.05), and the expression of genes related to the glucose metabolism (pk and pepck) and mTOR (tor, akt, s6k1, 4ebp1, and ampka) signaling pathways were significantly increased in the liver in H1 (p < 0.05). The relative abundance of Blautia in the gut microbiota (p < 0.05) was significantly increased in H1. Therefore, these results indicated that H1 can significantly improve growth performance, promote intestinal digestion, activate the glucose metabolism pathway and mTOR signaling pathway, and increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria in the gut of largemouth bass. These findings provided valuable support for the application of HRW to support the healthy aquaculture of largemouth bass.

“…Notably, a study demonstrated that electrolyzed reduced water partially alleviated skeletal muscle oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) and improved growth performance in broiler chickens subjected to medium-term chronic heat treatment (5 days at 34°C) ( Azad et al, 2013 ). Additionally, in layers exposed to long-term chronic heat stress (42 days at 34°C), drinking ERW improved villus length, villus length/crypt depth ratio in the jejunum, enhanced plasma antioxidative enzyme activities, reduced plasma malondialdehyde levels, and significantly improved production performance (egg production and feed conversation ratio) and egg quality (egg thickness) ( Zhang et al, 2022 ). Moreover, supplementation with hydrogenated water (HNW) increased antioxidant enzyme activity in broiler chickens ( Shin et al, 2016 ).…”

Magnesium hydride (MGH), a highly promising hydrogen-producing substance/additive for hydrogen production through its hydrolysis reaction, has the potential to enhance broiler production. However, before incorporating MGH as a hydrogen-producing additive in broiler feed, it is crucial to fully understand its impact on microbiota and metabolites. In vitro fermentation models provide a fast, reproducible, and direct assessment tool for microbiota metabolism and composition. This study aims to investigate the effects of MGH and coated-magnesium hydride (CMG) on fermentation characteristics, as well as the microbiota and metabolome in the culture of in vitro fermentation using cecal inocula from broilers. After 48 h of incubation, it was observed that the presence of MGH had a significant impact on various factors. Specifically, the content of N-NH3 decreased, while the total hydrogen gas and total SCFAs increased. Furthermore, the presence of MGH promoted the abundance of SCFA-producing bacteria such as Ruminococcus, Blautia, Coprobacillus, and Dysgonomonas. On the other hand, the presence of CMG led to an increase in the concentration of lactic acid, acetic acid, and valeric acid. Additionally, CMG affected the diversity of microbiota in the culture, resulting in an enrichment of the relative abundance of Firmicutes, as well as genera of Lactobacillus, Coprococcus, and Eubacterium. Conversely, the relative abundance of the phylum Proteobacteria and pathogenic bacteria Shigella decreased. Metabolome analysis revealed that MGH and CMG treatment caused significant changes in 21 co-regulated metabolites, primarily associated with lipid, amino acid, benzenoids, and organooxygen compounds. Importantly, joint correlation analysis revealed that MGH or CMG treatments had a direct impact on the microbiota, which in turn indirectly influenced metabolites in the culture. In summary, the results of this study suggested that both MGH and coated-MGH have similar yet distinct positive effects on the microbiota and metabolites of the broiler cecal in an in vitro fermentation model.
