Caption : <b>movie s1.</b> movie showing a <i>stentor</i> cell splitting at an entrance velocity of 2.08 m/s at the cross junction of a symmetric hydrodynamic splitter. the flapping of the tail end of each fragment post-splitting could be caused by formation of streamwise vortices downstream of the cross junction.

File Name : s2.avi

Caption : <b>movie s2.</b> movie showing one of the smallest live <i>stentor</i> fragments generated from the splitting process. this fragment was formed after splitting using a symmetric hydrodynamic splitter at an entrance velocity of 2.08 m/s. the fragment is relatively transparent optically, has beating cilia and is membrane bound.
