Hirosaki University

Associate Professor, Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Hirosaki University / Specialized in applied microbiology. He is working on the development of microbial functions for the production of homogeneous materials from lignin. He is promoting the realization of this through an interdisciplinary approach in which chemical degradation of lignin, fermentation production, and polymer synthesis are linked.

The key to producing homogeneous polymeric materials from lignin is an interdisciplinary approach between chemistry and biotechnology [Cultivating the future through carbon farming].

Lignin is a major component of woody and herbaceous biomass, along with cellulose, but its non-regular and heterogeneous chemical structure [...].
