The strength required for the cell separation is calculated with assumption of cohesive rupture of the cell contact. It is shown that the strength of cell separation depends on cohesion of the cell membrane and length of the membrane rupture. The obtained values of are in better agreement with the experimental data than the calculations made on the ground of the colloidal stability theory.
