Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 and 1998

   Product Sales. Product sales for the three months ended March 31, 1999
decreased by $13,832 as compared to product sales for the three months ended
March 31, 1998. Product sales consisted primarily of the 1cc locking clip
syringe, a difficult-to-reuse syringe. All syringes were either produced in the
Company's own production facility in New York or in its Portuguese contract
manufacturer. As of March 31, 1999, there were open sales orders of
approximately $108,000 which were shipped April 5, 1999 due to air space
limitations in March, 1999. Had these orders been shipped in March, 1999, sales
would have increased approximately $94,000 or 26%.

   In February, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with one of its
customers to supply approximately 36 million syringes at $.0895 per syringe
during the year ending December 31, 1999.

   Cost of Product Sales. Cost of product sales for the 1999 three-month period
decreased by $20,509 as compared to cost of product sales for the 1998
three-month period. Gross profit was approximately the same for both periods.
The decrease was primarily related to a decrease in product sales.

   Marketing. Marketing expense for the 1999 three-month period increased by
$34,219 as compared to the 1998 three-month period due to increased marketing
efforts.

   Product Development. Product development expenses for the 1999 three-month
period decreased by $74,258 as compared to the 1998 three-month period. This
decrease is due primarily to the management's decision in 1998 to utilize its
resources in the development of its production facility and in 1999 to utilize
its resources for marketing.

   General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses for the 1999
three-month period decreased by $60,149 as compared to the 1998 three-month
period. This decrease is due primarily to a reduction in salaries, offset in
part by an increase in securities maintenance expense and a continuing effort by
management to reduce costs.

   Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense increased for the 1999 three month
period by $9,828 as compared to the 1998 three-month period. This difference is
due principally to the fact that during the 1998 three month period the Company
had cash and cash equivalents earning interest income of approximately $6,656,
whereas, in the 1999 three month period there were no such investments. In
addition, interest expense was incurred during the 1999-three month period for
the capital lease obligation.

   Net Loss. The net loss for the 1999 three-month period decreased by $97,037
as compared to the 1998 three-month period. This decrease is due primarily to
the reductions in product development expenses and general and administrative
expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $217,821 primarily from a
lower operating loss and decreases in inventory and accounts payable partially
offset by increases in accounts receivable. Net cash from financing activities
increased in 1999 by approximately $514,430, primarily from net proceeds from
the sale of Series C Preferred Stock and loans from a stockholder and others.
The Company is pursuing financing to provide additional working capital, which
could involve dilution to existing stockholders.

   Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed
in this report are forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, including need for additional financing and other risks detailed
from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
reports.

Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.

        (c) Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

        On February 8, 1999, the Registrant issued and sold to The Shaar Fund,
Ltd. for an aggregate price of $250,000, 250 shares of the Registrant's Series C
5% Convertible Preferred Stock, and Warrants expiring in three years to purchase
for $1.93 per share 37,500 shares of its Common Stock. The securities were
issued without registration in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section
4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Registrant incurred
commissions of $24,000 in connection with the transaction.

        Each share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into the number of
shares of Common Stock having the value of $1,000, on the basis of the lower of
(i) $1.10 per share and (ii) a price equal to to 80 to 85% of a price related to
the market price for the Common Stock at the time of conversion, as provided in
and subject to the terms and conditions of the Certificate of Designation
defining the Series C Preferred Stock (the "conversion rate"), at the option of
the holder thereof. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in the event of
a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or
certain other events. If the Registrant's Common Stock is delisted from trading
on NASDAQ for any reason, the remaining Series C Preferred Stock may be
converted into Common Stock at a price related to 75% of the market price of the
Common Stock at the time of conversion. The right of conversion with respect to
the shares of the Series C Preferred Stock called for redemption will terminate
at the close of business on the business day preceding the date fixed for
redemption. Upon conversion, no payment or allowance will be made in respect of
any accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series C Preferred Stock. All the Series
C Preferred Stock must be converted no later than February 8, 2001.

        In connection with the issuance of the Series C Preferred Stock, the
Registrant modified the terms and conditions of preferred stock and warrants
purchased by The Shaar Fund, Ltd. in 1998 to conform to the terms and conditions
of the Series C Preferred Stock and related warrants described in the preceding
paragraph.
