GO:0048550 | Definition | Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate of pinocytosis. Pinocytosis is the process whereby cells take in liquid material from their external environment; literally 'cell drinking'. Liquid is enclosed in vesicles, formed by invagination of the plasma membrane. These vesicles then move into the cell and pass their contents to endosomes. | ||
