Abstract

A magneto-plasma dynamic arc-jet (MPD arc-jet) was applied to the synthesis of biomolecules. Fourteen µ mol of amino acid were synthesized by hydrolyzing the film produced from a hot plasma of CO–N2–H2 gas mixture. The amino acids were identified by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The gas-phase products and the film were examined by mass spectroscopy and elementary analysis, respectively. Since glycine was found in all samples which were synthesized under different conditions, it became clear that the conditions of glycine synthesis were not strict. After MPD arc discharges, most gas-phase products were the starting gas samples and about 1% of the starting gas samples was deposited. About 1% of the deposit was amino acid precursors.
