Cells of Tetrahymena pyriformis have been cold-synchronized using a repetitive cycle of six, two-hour cold shocks (9.5"C) alternating with decreasing periods (60-30 minutes.) at 28Β°C. This system gives a maximum division index of 7040% occurring at 90 minutes from the end of the last synchronizing c

## 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,
The pyrimidine requirements for growth of T. pyrifomzis and for reversal of the growth inhibition caused by folate deprivation have been studied. The effects of thymidine and 5-fluorodeoxyuridine have been shown to be quantitatively different from the effects of these compounds on growth and the rat
## 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
