Title: Survey of Hydrogenase Activity in Algae: Final Report

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1068602· OSTI ID:1068602

The capacity for hydrogen gas production was examined in nearly 100 strains of Eukaryotic algae. Each strain was assessed for rate of H2 production in darkness, at compensating light intensity and at saturating Tight intensity. Maximum H2 yield on illumination and sensitivity to molecular oxygen were also measured.
