  1. COoking with gas Low concentrations of carbon monoxide (CO) have shown therapeutic benefit in preclinical models, but safe delivery of appropriate dose has been challenging to achieve. Here, inspired by molecular gastronomy, Byrne et al . designed gas-entrapping materials (GEMs) using components generally recognized as safe, including xanthan gum, methylcellulose, maltodextrin, and corn syrup. Solid, hydrogel, and foam GEMs containing CO could deliver different concentrations of the gas to healthy rodents and pigs through noninhaled routes. In rodent models of colitis, acetaminophen overdose, and radiation-induced proctitis, rectally administered foam GEMs reduced tissue injury and inflammation. Foam GEMs could help achieve safe therapeutic CO delivery.
