Hello, I have a question for all.  I am relatively new to using Dicty.

I had obtained Dicty from the Dictybase stocks & properly grew them up as directed.  

Due to some unforeseen instances, I had to be away from lab for a few days and as a result, my axenic cultures (in HL5 medium) have become confluent.  I am growing them to both store permanently and to do a bacterial co-culture from log-phase growth

I know that at some point they start to differentiate at a certain density.  Is it possible to cut these cells into a new fresh diluted media for a new culture for me to use or if once they differentiate, they are no longer useful.

Thank you
