<PAGE>
      The  Company  is  obligated to make royalty  payments  under  several
distribution  and  licensing agreements.  The majority of these  agreements
call  for  payments based on a percentage of sales and contain  no  minimum
royalty  clause.  Royalty expense under these agreements was  $309,000  for
the  quarter ended March 31, 1995 and $336,000 for the quarter ended  April
1, 1994.

NOTE 6 _ EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

      The  Company has individual retirement agreements with the  executive
officers  which  are  intended to provide continued  compensation  to  such
officers  or  their  respective  beneficiaries  upon  retirement  from  the
Company.   The  benefits and terms under these arrangements vary  depending
upon  the  officer's position within the Company.  In connection with  this
plan,  included  in  Other long term liabilities  at  March  31,  1995  and
December  31, 1994 is $2,963,000 and $2,895,000, respectively, representing
the  present  value of the future liability.  The Company intends  to  fund
this  obligation  through the purchase of life insurance contracts  on  the
individual executives.  Included in Other assets is $943,000 and  $905,000,
respectively, representing the cash surrender value of  these policies.

NOTE 7 _ INCOME TAXES

      Upon  the exercise of certain officer stock options during  the  year
ended  December  31,  1990,  the Company was  entitled  to  a  compensation
deduction  allowable for income tax purposes.  No compensation expense  was
required for financial reporting purposes because the option price  on  the
original grant date equaled the then fair market value of the shares.  Upon
realization of the benefit relating to the compensation deduction  for  tax
purposes, the benefit is credited to additional paid in capital.   For  the
quarter ended March 31, 1995, the Company recognized a credit of $93,000 to
Additional paid in capital relating to these stock options.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Sales for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 increased 4% to $11,117,000
from $10,657,000 for the same quarter a year earlier.  This increase can be
attributed  mainly to increases in the Company's   autoimmunity, infectious
disease and bone & mineral market segments.  In the autoimmunity market the
TheratestTM  product line, acquired in 1994,  contributed to this  increase
in sales.  In addition, sales have been favorably impacted by the Company's
TRAb  product,  which  is a test used in detecting  Graves'  disease.   The
Company's  infectious disease product line is being favorably  impacted  by
sales  of  a  second  generation  test  for  Epstein  Barr  Virus  in   the
international market place.  The Company is currently seeking FDA  approval
for  marketing  these  tests in the U.S.  In the bone  and  mineral  market
segment  the  Company's Vitamin D kits continue to capture  greater  market
share in both the domestic and international marketplace.

      Sales continue to be negatively impacted in the Company's thyroid and
therapeutic  drug monitoring lines resulting from a shift  in  this  market
toward  non-isotopic  automated testing.  This has  impacted  the  domestic
market  at  a  faster rate than the international market  and  the  Company
anticipates  this  shift  to  continue.  Domestic  sales  increased  1%  to
$5,567,000,  and  international  sales increased  8%  to  $5,550,000.   The
Company's strategic focus in the research and development area is  on  non-
RIA, automated diagnostic products.

     Gross margins for the first quarter of 1995 were 46% of sales compared
to  47%  of  sales for the same period in the prior year.  This decline  is
primarily  due to lower production volumes during the latter part  of  1994
contributing  to higher unit costs.  The Company expects gross  margins  to
remain  at  or  near this level for the remainder of 1995,  however,  gross
margins  are highly dependent on production volumes due to the high  fixed-
cost nature of the Company's products.

      Selling,  general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses declined  from
$3,100,000, or 29% of sales, in the first quarter of 1994 to $2,960,000, or
27%  of  sales, in the first quarter of 1995.  This decline is attributable
to  cost  saving  measures taken by the Company during 1994.   The  Company
anticipates SG&A spending to increase slightly during the remainder of 1995
due   to   advertising  and  other  costs  associated  with   new   product
introductions.

     Research and development expenditures decreased 46% to $914,000 in the
first quarter of 1995 from $1,705,000 for the same period in the prior year
and  decreased as a percentage of sales to 8% compared to 16% in the  prior
year.   This decrease is mainly attributable to the discontinuation of  the
FPIA  technology in 1994 as discussed in Note 4 above.  The Company intends
to maintain research and development expenditures at levels consistent with
historical  spending, exclusive of FPIA.  On March 30,  1995,  the  Company
entered   into   an  agreement  with  Fujisawa  Pharmaceutical   Co.   Ltd.
("Fujisawa")  of Osaka, Japan to complete the development  of  a  Phase  II
FK506 ELISA based diagnostic kit.  FK506 is an immunosuppressant drug  used
in   the   prevention  of  organ  transplant  rejection.   Upon  completing
development,  the Company will manufacture, sell and distribute  the  FK506
diagnostic kit on a worldwide basis.

     Interest expense decreased to $87,000 compared to $99,000 for the same
period  in the prior year.  This decrease is attributable to lower  average
debt levels.

      Income  tax  expense for the quarter was $364,000, or 31%  of  income
before  taxes compared with  $31,000, or 23% of income before taxes in  the
first  quarter of 1994.  The increase in the effective rate is due to fewer
available  tax credits to offset income tax expense for financial reporting
purposes.  See discussion at Note 7, Income Taxes.  The Company anticipates
this effective rate to continue for the remainder of 1995.

<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources

      The  Company's operating cash flow increased in the first quarter  of
1995  to $1,598,000 from $752,000 in the first quarter of 1994.  Free  cash
flow  (operating  cash  flow  less  investment  activities)  increased   to
$1,405,000 from $269,000 in the comparable period of the prior year.   This
increase  is  primarily  due to increased operating  income  in  the  first
quarter  of 1995.  The Company utilized this cash to reduce its outstanding
debt  by  $1.1  million in the first quarter of 1995.  Net working  capital
increased  in  this year's first quarter to $14,351,000 at March  31,  1995
from $13,873,000 at December 31, 1994.

      At March 31, 1995, the Company's primary sources of liquidity were  a
$1  million revolving bank credit line secured by Company assets and  a  $4
million unsecured credit line with Fiat Finance U.S.A., Inc.  At March  31,
1995,  the Company had no outstanding borrowings under these credit  lines.
The Company believes that its operating cash flow and existing credit lines
will   provide   ample  sources  of  liquidity  for  all  planned   capital
expenditures and research and development activities.  Capital spending for
1995 is anticipated to be approximately $1.7 million.
