Gene Expression Systems. One of the potentials of genetic engineering of microbes is production of large amounts of recombinant proteias (12,13). This is not a trivial task. Each proteia is unique and the stabiUty of the proteia varies depending on the host. Thus it is not feasible to have a single omnipotent microbial host for the production of all recombinant proteias. Rather, several microbial hosts have to be studied. Expression vectors have to be tailored to the microbe of choice. 

The proper choice and appHcation of an insecticide for pest control are predicated upon factors, eg, the life history and ecology of the pest, the relation of pest population to economic damage, the effect of the insecticide on the pest or its plant or animal host, related organisms in the ecosystem, and proper timing of the appHcation to prevent illegal residues at harvest and to avoid damaging of bees and other pollinating insects. 

The choice of a particular mining method depends on a number of parameters, typically the physical properties of the host matrix, the fiber content of the ore, the amount of sterile materials, the presence of contaminants, and the extent of potential fiber degradation during the various mining operations (33). However, most of the asbestos mining operations are of the open pit type, using bench drilling techniques. 

Imagine, ladies, you re out at like a picnic with your man, said Carson Daly, tire host of Last Call, interviewing Lil Kim, the rapper, on late-night television. You got a little wine. Maybe a little Cristal, whatever your choice is. ... 

In addition to this, the subtle importance of several other factors warrants due consideration. For example, in making a choice of the proper host attention... 

The thermodynamic properties of magnesium make it a natural choice for use as an anode material in rechargeable batteries, as it may provide a considerably higher energy density than the commonly used lead-acid and nickel-cadmium systems, while in contrast to Pb and Cd, magnesium is inexpensive, environmentally friendly, and safe to handle. However, the development of Mg-ion batteries has so far been limited by the kinetics of Mg " " diffusion and the lack of suitable electrolytes. Actually, in spite of an expected general similarity between the processes of Li and Mg ion insertion into inorganic host materials, most of the compounds that exhibit fast and reversible Li ion insertion perform very poorly in Mg " ions. Hence, there...
