|dw:1373297093025:dw|Okay, so your question says, "which of the following" so what are our options to chose from? Personally I think you would just use commas, regardless of how formal. Semicolons are longer pauses than commas, and I can't think of any other puntcual device that can do what that comma does, in a more formal manner.
