Abstract
The following invention relates to an apparatus and a method for improving the rate of cell fusion. Cells contained in chambers are prevented from adhering to the surface of the walls of a chamber in which they are contained by the pulse-like changes in fluid pressure, which causes the cells to separate from the surface of the chamber.
