− | Solar Hunter is an artificial hydrogen production system made up of biofilm-anchored nanorods which efficiently convert photons to electrons, and engineered strain expressing [FeFe] Hydrogenase as the acceptor of the electrons to produce hydrogen. The process of making the Solar Hunter entails the testing of each component ’s function separately. | + | <h2>Solar Hunter is an artificial hydrogen production system made up of biofilm-anchored nanorods which efficiently convert photons to electrons, and engineered strain expressing [FeFe] Hydrogenase as the acceptor of the electrons to produce hydrogen.
