Due to this reactivity they are incompatible with water, oxygen ( O < sub > 2 </ sub >), and carbon dioxide, and must be handled under a protective atmosphere such as nitrogen or, preferably, argon.

Due to the low toxicity and low reactivity of its component metals, it finds use as a replacement for many applications that previously employed toxic liquid mercury or reactive NaK ( sodium-potassium alloy ).

Due to these two modes of reactivity, reactions of singlet methylene are stereospecific whereas those of triplet methylene are stereoselective.

Due in part to these injuries, O ' Connell retired early in 1958 to take a coaching job in Illinois, and Milt Plum was named the starter.

Due to their efficiency, these drugs are the most widely used cytostatics.

Due to their size, prokaryotes cannot detect effective concentration gradients, therefore these cells scan and evaluate their environment by a constant swimming ( consecutive steps of straight swims and tumbles ).

Due to the large caloric intake these athletes must consume it can be particularly tricky to ensure they obtain the nutrition required to maintain muscle mass.

Due to what these churches perceive as the errors of modernism and ecumenism in mainstream Orthodoxy, they refrain from concelebration of the Divine Liturgy with them while maintaining that they remain fully within the canonical boundaries of the Church: i. e., professing Orthodox belief, retaining legitimate episcopal succession, and existing in communities with historical continuity.

Due to the specialized nature of the exposure and the higher degree of control afforded by the film lab equipment, these intermediate and release stocks are specially designed solely for these applications and are generally not feasible for camera shooting.
