1 Molecular characterisation of a dominant methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clone in a Mexican hospital (1999–2003)  G. Echániz-Aviles, M.E. Velázquez-Meza, M. Aires-de-Sousa, R. Morfín-Otero, E. Rodríguez-Noriega, N. Carnalla-Barajas, S. Esparza- Ahumada, H. de Lencastre  Clinical Microbiology and Infection  Volume 12, Issue 1, Pages (January 2006) DOI: /j x Copyright © 2006 European Society of Clinical Infectious Diseases Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Examples of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis profiles obtained for MRSA isolates from the Hospital Civil of Guadalajara ‘Fray Antonio Alcalde’, Mexico. Lanes: 1 and 24, lambda ladder used as molecular size (MW) markers; 2 and 23, reference strain NCTC8325; 3 (47MEXU) pattern A; 4–21, subtypes of clone A (A1–A18); 22 (122MEXU) pattern J.

3 Fig. 2 Dendrogram comparing MRSA clone A (47MEXU) from the Hospital Civil de Guadalajara ‘Fray Antonio Alcalde’, Mexico with different international MRSA clones (BK2464 (New York) and 78 MEXC (Mexico); New York/Japan clone; EMRSA-16 clone; HPV107, Iberian clone; HU25, Brazilian clone). Patterns were clustered by the unweighted pair-group method using arithmetic averages, and the similarity coefficients were generated from a similarity matrix calculated with the Jaccard coefficient.
