Help!

 I am thinking of using E. coli strain BL21 to express a recombinant
protein but I have heard that it carries certain health and safety risks.
Does anyone have experience in using this strain or know of any special
handling procedures or containment levels required to grow this strain.

Thanks 
Rob

Why not try to use DH5alpha?
