Dr Kai Kropp has successfully extracted DNA from a sample of 
Staphylococcus which is another deliverable completed for the ClouDxi project.

Kai also gave computer science researchers and NSilico personnel a demonstration on DNA extraction from Staphylococcus in the labs at CIT.  The researchers found the procedure very interesting and it was useful to see what happens in practice, such as seeing a culture, the sample being heated and washed until finally seeing flakes of DNA.

The demonstration facilitated the transfer of knowledge and gave computer scientists an understanding of the underlying procedures involved in extracting DNA before it is sent to be sequenced.
