To improve the extraction efficiency of oil component from microalgae for biomass fuel, electroporation was applied to the cell wall. By using developed pulsed power generator with 25-100 microseconds pulse width, partly- or whole-transparent individuals were observed. In increasing electric fields, some individuals seem having a deficit on the cell wall. The changes were considered to be a result by electroporation. In an experiment for proliferation acceleration by electric pulses, some samples grew faster than controls. Further experiments were required for the confirmation.
