Clumping cells

Dear Flow People,

A colleague is trying to look for apoptosis using the sub G1, Propidium
Iodide, method however, his cells stubbornly refuses to form single cells
and continue to aggregate causing our FacsCalibur to block every time we put
the samples on. Can anyone relieve our misery by suggesting any sample
preparation tips that will prevent cell clumping.

Regards,
