Figure 2

ERIC-PCR fingerprinting of MRSA ERIC-type groups of isolates recovered from four public hospitals in KZN, South Africa. An index of 60%, indicated by the solid red line, was used, respectively, to determine similarity and clustering. S. aureus ATCC 29213 was used as the quality control strain.
