- Abstract
This study has been initiated to show the reproductive potential and some methods of assessment of reproductive capacity in Ciliates. The reproductive capacity of unicellular organisms by binary division was determined depending on the age of the population. The reproduction of organisms was made "in vitro" because the observation of some particularities of the Ciliates is impossible to estimate in natural conditions which are complex and vary permanently. The research tried to determine the longevity of Infusoria, the number of bunary division, and the number of generations after the sexuated multiplication process. It was based on the ciliate protozoa model. The basic culture used in investigation is Paramecium caudatum.
