Keywords:radical, microorganism, hydrogen

In recent years, renewable energy has attracted attention instead of fossil fuels. In this laboratory, we focused on hydrogen production, in particular by microorganisms decomposing organic matter. Meanwhile, plasma technology has been studied not only in the industrial world but also in medicine and agriculture fields, its importance is increasing, and acceleration of proliferation of budding yeast by irradiation with oxygen radical has been reported.In this research, we aim to activate the hydrogen production capacity of microorganisms having hydrogen generating ability by oxygen / nitrogen oxide radicals
