ONY Biotech products

Working with a local company that specializes in gas detection technologies, ONY Biotech is developing a hand held hydrogen detection device. The 2nd generation device has demonstrated the ability to quickly and easily quantitate the hydrogen content in a premature baby’s breath. Hydrogen levels in expired air reflect the burden of hydrogen generating bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract. Monitoring gut bacteria load may be an additional tool to more effectively and safely manage alimentary feedings in small premature infants.
