                                     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NATURE OF            Consolidated Technologies, Inc. and its affiliate, Conco 
BUSINESS             Associates, Inc. dba Cone Biotech (the "Companies") 
                     develop and manufacture intermediate biological 
                     materials, in vitro diagnostics products and proficiency 
                     testing specimens. The Companies market their products 
                     and services to manufacturers and suppliers of in vitro 
                     diagnostics and providers of proficiency testing 
                     programs throughout the United States.

                     The intermediate biological materials processed by the 
                     Companies are used in the formulation of in vitro 
                     diagnostics having applications in laboratory 
                     disciplines such as immunology, clinical chemistry, 
                     toxicology and infectious disease. Proficiency testing 
                     specimens manufactured from the intermediate biological 
                     materials are primarily used in evaluating the 
                     performance of laboratories in testing for substances 
                     included in the specimens.

PRINCIPLES OF        The accompanying combined financial statements include 
COMBINATION          the accounts of Consolidated Technologies, Inc. ("CTI") 
                     and Cone Biotech ("CB"), both of which are under common 
                     control. All material intercompany balances and 
                     transactions are eliminated.

INVESTMENT IN        CB uses the equity method to account for its investment 
JOINT VENTURE        in a 50% owned joint venture.

INVENTORIES          Inventories, which primarily consist of blood plasma as 
                     raw materials and proficiency testing kits as finished 
                     goods, are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost 
                     is determined by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method.

PROPERTY,            Property and equipment are stated at cost and are 
EQUIPMENT,           depreciated over the estimated useful lives of five to 
DEPRECIATION AND     seven years using the double declining balance method.
AMORTIZATION         Leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and are
                     amortized using the straight-line method, over the 
                     lesser of the estimated useful lives of the property 
                     or the lease term.

                                     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

INCOME TAXES         The Companies have elected S Corporation filing status for 
                     federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision for 
                     federal income taxes is required. Stockholders are taxed 
                     individually on their pro rata share of respective 
                     corporate earnings.
 
CASH AND CASH        For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Companies 
EQUIVALENTS          consider certificates of deposit purchased with an 
                     original maturity of three months or less to be cash 
                     equivalents. Cash includes cash on hand and in banks.

ACCOUNTING           The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 
ESTIMATES            generally accepted accounting principles requires 
                     management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 
                     the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 
                     disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
                     of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
                     revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual 
                     results could differ from those estimates.

FAIR VALUE OF        CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS. The carrying amounts at 
FINANCIAL            September 30, 1997 and 1996 approximates the fair value
INSTRUMENTS          because of the short maturity of those investments.

                     NOTES RECEIVABLE. Based on discounted cash flows, the fair 
                     values of the notes receivable approximates the carrying 
                     value at September 30, 1997 and 1996.

                     LONG-TERM DEBT. Based on borrowing rates currently 
                     available to the Companies for bank loans with similar 
                     terms and average maturities, the fair value of long-term 
                     debt, including the current portion thereof, approximates 
                     its carrying value at September 30, 1997 and 1996.

                                     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


LONG-LIVED           In accordance with SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
ASSETS               of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be 
                     Disposed  Of", management reviews long-lived assets and 
                     intangible assets for impairment whenever events or 
                     changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of 
                     an asset may not be fully recoverable. As part of this 
                     assessment, management prepares an analysis of the 
                     undiscounted cash flows for each product that has 
                     significant long-lived or intangible asset values 
                     associated with it.  This analysis for the asset values 
                     as of December 31, 1996 and 1995 indicated there was no 
                     impairment to these assets' carrying values.

                      at June 30, 1997. The unpaid balance on this note at 
                      September 30, 1996 was approximately $85,000. The 
                      remaining balance of this note was collected in March of 
                      1997. The investment in Cenetron is carried at cost and 
                      is included in other assets in the accompanying combined 
                      balance sheets. The accrued interest is included in 
                      prepaid expenses and other assets at September 30, 1996.

                      CB conducts some of its operations through a joint 
                      venture in the form of a partnership, which is 
                      principally accounted for using the equity method, 
                      discussed in more detail in Note 3. Included in CB's 
                      revenues for 1997 and 1996 are equity in income of the 
                      joint venture of approximately $494,000 and $376,000, 
                      respectively. In addition, CTI sold approximately $1.1 
                      million and $1.3 million of goods to the joint venture 
                      during 1997 and 1996, respectively. Trade receivables 
                      from the joint venture at September 30, 1997 and 1996, 
                      were approximately $15,409 and $30,895, respectively.

                     Seracon and Proficiency Testing Services ("PTS") have 
                     common ownership. During 1996, PTS made a $224,000 advance
                     to CTI. According to the verbal agreement,  CTI is required
                     to repay the unsecured loan plus accrued interest of 9.5%
                     per annum on demand.

                     In December of 1993, CB agreed to loan up to $60,000 to an 
                     officer of CB with unpaid  principal and accrued interest 
                     at 10% due and payable by December 12, 1998. Under this 
                     agreement, CB loaned approximately $37,500 to this officer 
                     in 1996. Unpaid principal balance and accrued interest due 
                     CB in connection with the note receivable at September 30, 
                     1997 and 1996 are approximately $52,000 and $52,000, 
                     respectively.

10. CONCENTRATION    Plasma collection, storage, labeling and distribution
    OF CREDIT        activities are subject to strict regulation and licensing
    RISK AND         by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). The 
    SIGNIFICANT      Companies's facilities are subject to  periodic inspection 
    CUSTOMERS        by the FDA. Failure to comply or correct deficiencies with
                     applicable laws or regulations could subject the Companies
                     to enforcement action, including product seizures, recalls,
                     center or facility closure, license revocations and civil
                     and criminal  penalties.  Any future enforcement action by
                     the FDA could have a material adverse effect on the
                     Companies' business.

                     Laws and regulations with similar substantive and
                     enforcement provisions are also in effect in many of the
                     states and municipalities where the Companies do business.
                     Any change in existing federal, state or municipal laws 
                     or regulations, or in the interpretation or enforcement 
                     thereof, or the promulgation of any additional laws or 
                     regulations could have an adverse effect on the 
                     Companies' business.

                     Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company 
                     to concentrations of credit risk, as defined by Statement 
                     of Financial Accounting Standards No. 105, consist 
                     primarily of accounts receivable.

                     Approximately 86% and 90% of the net sales were made to 
                     three customers in 1997 and 1996, respectively.

                     to a third party for cash and stock in a publicly-traded 
                     Company. According to the Asset Purchase Agreement, all

                     multi-year employment agreements.

1.  SUMMARY OF       INVENTORY
    ACCOUNTING
    POLICES          Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market.
    (CONTINUED)      Cost is determined by the first-in, fist-out (FIFO)
                     method. 

                     PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

                     Property and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation
                     is computed using accelerated  methods over the
                     estimated  useful lives of the respective assets.
                     Leasehold improvements are amortized using the 
                     straight-line  method  over  the  estimated life of the
                     asset or the remaining term of the lease, whichever is
                     shorter. The estimated useful lives of the assets
                     range from 5 to 7 years.
 
                     CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

                     The Company considers as cash and cash equivalents all
                     cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and
                     other highly-liquid investments with original
                     maturities of 3 months or less.

                     FDA LICENSES
                     
                     Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") licenses are
                     required to operate as a distributor. The cost of
                     acquiring FDA licenses was fully amortized by May 31,
                     1996.

1.   SUMMARY OF      FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
     ACCOUNTING
     POLICIES
     (CONTINUED)     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107,
                     "Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial
                     Instruments,"  requires disclosure of the fair value of
                     certain financial instruments. Accounts receivable and
                     accounts  payable as reflected in the financial
                     statements approximate fair value because of the short-
                     term maturity othese instruments. The fair value of
                     the investment in partnership cannot be estimated due
                     to its related-party nature.

                     ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

                     The preparation of financial statements in conformity
                     with generally accepted accounting principals requires
                     management to make estimates and assumptions that
                     affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
                     and footnotes thereto.  Actual results could differ
                     from those estimates.

                     INCOME TAXES

                     The company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and
                     assets for the expected future tax consequences of
                     events that have been recognized in a company's
                     financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax
                     liabilities and assets are determined based on the
                     difference between the financial statement carrying
                     amounts  and  tax bases of assets and liabilities using
                     enacted tax rates in effect in the years which the
                     differences are expected to reverse.

                     and such amounts recognized for tax purposes.

    CUSTOMERS        (FDA). The Company's facilities and those of its turn-
    (CONTINUED)      key manufacturers and  its suppliers are subject to
                     periodic inspection by the FDA. Failure to comply or
                     correct deficiencies with applicable laws or
                     regulations could subject the Company, Its
                     manufacturers or its suppliers to enforcement action,
                     including product seizures, recalls, facility closure,
                     license revocation and civil and criminal penalties,
                     any one or more of which could have a material, adverse
                     effect on the Company's business.

                     Laws and regulations with similar substantive and
                     enforcement provisions are also in effect in many of
                     the states and municipalities where the Company, its
                     manufacturers and its suppliers do business. Any change
                     in existing federal, state or municipal laws or
                     regulations, or in the interpretation or enforcement
                     thereof, or the promulgation of any additional laws or
                     regulations could have an adverse effect on the
                     Company's business.

                     For the nine months ended November 30, 1997,
                     approximately  15% of the  net sales were made to one
                     customer. For the nine months ended November 30, 1996,
                     no individual customer accounted for 10% or more of
                     revenue.  At November 30, 1997, approximately 60% of
                     accounts receivable was due from two customers. At
                     November 30, 1996, approximately 27% of accounts

                     Agreement for cash, common shares of SeraCare, Inc. and

                     credit.

Statements of Operations have been adjusted to give effect to the acquisition 
of substantially all of the operating assets of Consolidated Technologies,

SeraCare, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet
As of November 30, 1997


The historical consolidated balance sheet presented for the Company is as of 
November 30, 1997. The acquisitions are reflected as of December 31, 1997, 
the effective date of such transactions. The Subordinated Debenture issuance 
is reflected as of the date of issuance on February 13, 1998. The Adjustments 
to Reflect Acquisitions reflect the full net impact of the indicated 
transactions as follows:

SUBORDINATED DEBT ISSUANCE.  The cash received from the issuance of $16.0 of 
Subordinated Debentures has been adjusted to reflect the costs directly 
related to the issuance including a referral fee and legal expenses. A part 
of the cash received from the Subordinated Debt issuance was used to finance 
the cash portions of acquisitions of Western States Group, Inc. and 
Consolidated Technologies, Inc. and has been recorded accordingly. The 
deferred bond discount represents the fair market value of the warrants 
issued in conjunction with the issuance of the Subordinated Debentures plus 
the costs directly related to the issuance.

WESTERN STATES GROUP, INC.  The total cost for the purchase of all of the 
stock of Western States acquisition has been preliminarily allocated to 
tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based upon 
management's estimate of their respective fair market values with the excess 
of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired allocated to goodwill.  
The amount of the purchase cost is subject to adjustment under terms of the 
Stock Purchase Agreement.  Additionally, allocation of the purchase cost may 
be subject to revision when additional information concerning asset and 
liability valuations is obtained.  The purchase price is also subject to 
adjustment over the twenty four month period following the effective date of 
the acquisition based on the post-acquisition performance of Western States.  
  
                                          
CONSOLIDATED TECHNOLOGIES, INC.  The total cost for the purchase of 
substantially all of the operating assets Consolidated Technologies has been 
preliminarily allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets based 
upon management's estimate of their respective fair market values with the 
excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired allocated to 
goodwill. The amount of the purchase cost is subject to adjustment under 
terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement.  The allocation of the purchase cost 
may be subject to revision when additional information concerning asset and 
liability valuations is obtained.
