## Abstract Cultures of heatβsynchronized __Tetrahymena pyriformis__, growing in a proteose peptone medium, were subjected to short pulses of the amino acid analogue, __p__βflurophenylalanine, and high hydrostatic pressure. The pulses of these agents were chosen so that, when applied individually,
Early cleavage stages of Tetrahymena pyriformis were exposed to 250 atms pressure for periods ranging from 20-200 minutes. Pressure halted cleavage which, in those cells exposed for only a short time, was resumed soon after decompression. Cells exposed to longer periods of pressure treatment failed
## Abstract The rate of cell division of __Tetrahymena__ growing in an observational high pressure vessel was measured at selected pressures of helium, hydrogen and at high hydrostatic pressure. Pressures greater than 100 atm reduced the rate of division, but the gases inhibited division to a lesse
