We attempted to quantitatively determine the chimeric state in a total of 162 buccal swabs from 77 adult recipients aged 19-74 (median 50 years) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation by estimating the chimeric recipient/donor DNA ratios through analysis of 15 autosomal short tandem repeat markers. From each individual between one and nine, buccal swabs were taken at known time intervals after transplantation, ranging from 17 to 3,361 days (median 394 days). In buccal cells, the determined recipient/donor DNA ratios turned out to be highly variable between individuals and also within an individual.

A combined experimental and theoretical investigation of photodissociation dynamics of IBr(-) and IBr(-)(CO(2)) on the B ((2)Σ(1/2)(+)) excited electronic state is presented. Time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy reveals that in bare IBr(-) prompt dissociation forms exclusively I∗ + Br(-). Compared to earlier dissociation studies of IBr(-) excited to the A' ((2)Π(1∕2)) state, the signal rise is delayed by 200 ± 20 fs.

Chemical bond breaking involves coupled electronic and nuclear dynamics that can take place on multiple electronic surfaces. Here we report a time-resolved experimental and theoretical investigation of nonadiabatic dynamics during photodissociation of a complex of iodine monobromide anion with carbon dioxide [IBr-(CO2)] on the second excited (A') electronic state. Previous experimental work showed that the dissociation of bare IBr- yields only I- + Br products.
