Published: June 1993

Previous space experiments carried out in Paramecium tetraurelia have shown that exposure to microgravity results in an enhancement of cell multiplication. An opposite effect occurs when paramecia are exposed to hypergravity. Changes in cell growth rate observed in hypergravity cannot be ascribed to the bacteria present in the culture medium, the same effect being observed when paramecia grow in sterile medium.
