GELMAN SCIENCES INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


General

	In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited 
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which are of 
a normal recurring nature) necessary to present fairly the financial 
position of Gelman Sciences Inc. and subsidiaries as of April 30, 1995, 
and the results of their operations and cash flows for the three months 
and nine months ended April 30, 1995 and 1994.  These financial 
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements 
and notes set forth in the Company's Annual Report and Form 10-K for the 
year ended July 31, 1994.  The results of operations for the three 
months and nine months ended April 30, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily 
indicative of the results of the full year.

Public Offering

	During the quarter, the Company issued 1,437,500 shares of common 
stock at a price of $14.625 per share in a public common stock offering. 
The net proceeds of $19.4 million were used to repay a term note payable 
to NBD Bank N.A. and to reduce outstanding indebtedness under the 
Company's Credit Agreement.

Pollution Related Matters

	The Company has settled several law suits related to groundwater 
contamination and has begun remediation activities.  The remediation 
plan requires the Company to treat the groundwater to the extent 
necessary to reduce contaminants to a defined level.  Management 
estimates that remediation will take eight years.  Total costs to the 
Company of pollution related activities will be dependent upon the 
efficacy and duration of the remediation plan and obtaining a cost free 
repository for treated groundwater.  The ultimate costs to be incurred 
could exceed the amount provided of $840,000 at April 30, 1995.  
However, it is the opinion of management that these additional costs, if 
any, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations 
because the cash outflows would be spread over many future years.

Extraordinary item

	The extraordinary item in fiscal 1994 resulted from the redemption 
of 7.98% Industrial Development Revenue Bonds issued in 1989. The 
redemption was funded by the issuance of 1994 Industrial Development 
Revenue Bonds in the amount equal to the principal balance of the 1989 
Bonds of $5.1 million. The Company recorded a charge of $295,000 net of 
$112,000 tax benefit or $.03 per share to write-off deferred finance 
charges and record a redemption premium and fees related to the 1989 
Bonds.

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

Results of Operations

Comparison of Nine months ended April 30, 1995 and 1994
   Net Sales for the nine months ended April 30, 1995 increased by $5.1 
million or 7.3% to $75.1 million as compared to net sales of $70.0 
million for the nine months ended April 30, 1994.  Net sales for the 
nine months ended April 30, 1994 included non-recurring sales of $3.7 
million related to the Company's Australian non-core product lines that 
have been divested.  Net sales for the nine months ended April 30, 1995 
were favorably affected by the weakened U.S. dollar, which increased 
reported sales by $1.5 million.  The Company's sales growth, adjusted 
for these items, was 11.1%.

   Sales to customers in North, Central and South America increased 9.8% 
over the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily due to a 28.8% 
increase in sales of medical devices.  Sales to customers in Europe 
increased 12.7%, mainly due to increases in sales of process filtration 
products in Italy and France.  Sales to customers in the Asia/Pacific 
region declined 11.6% as a result of the divestiture of the Australian 
non-core product lines.  Without the effect of these sales, Asia/Pacific 
sales would have increased 39.4%, primarily attributable to increases in 
sales of process filtration products in Japan and Korea.  Worldwide 
sales of laboratory products, process filtration products and medical 
devices increased 9.5%, 21.7% and 24.0%, respectively.  Worldwide sales 
of microporous membranes decreased 4.0% as a result of a special 
shipment to a single customer in the first half of fiscal 1994. Without 
the effect of this shipment, sales of microporous membrane would have 
increased 9.9%.

   Gross profit increased $4.1 million or 11.8% to $38.7 million in the 
nine months ended April 30, 1995, as compared to $34.6 million in the 
nine months ended April 30, 1994.  As a percentage of net sales, gross 
profit increased to 51.5% from 49.4%.  The improvement in gross margin 
is primarily attributable to the divestiture of the lower margin non-
core product lines and improved operating efficiencies, which was 
partially offset by a less favorable product mix due to lower membrane 
sales as a percentage of total sales.

   Selling and administrative expense increased by $2.3 million or 9.5% 
to $26.8 million in the nine months ended April 30, 1995, compared to 
$24.5 million in the nine months ended April 30, 1994.  The increase in 
selling and administrative expense was primarily due to efforts in 
selling and promotional activity in accordance with the Company's growth 
strategy.

   Research and development expense increased by $476,000 or 13.5% to 
$4.0 million in the nine months ended April 30, 1995, compared to $3.5 
million in the nine months ended April 30, 1994.  As a percentage of net 
sales, these expenses were 5.3% and 5.0%, respectively.  The higher 
research and development spending is a result of an increased effort to 
develop and modify products to meet customer requirements.

                                        7
<PAGE>

   The effective tax rate for each of the nine months ended April 
30,1995 and 1994 was 36.3% and 35.5%, respectively. The higher tax rate 
reflects a greater percentage of income from subsidiaries with higher 
corporate tax rates in fiscal 1995.

   Net earnings increased $1,167,000 or 35.5% to $4.5 million or $.64 
per share for the nine months ended April 30, 1995, compared to $3.3 
million or $.53 per share for the nine months ended April 30, 1994.  
Earnings for fiscal 1994 included the extraordinary item plus the gain 
on sale of Australian assets. Excluding the effect of these two non-
recurring items, net earnings would have increased 32.4%.

Comparison of Three Months ended April 30, 1995 and 1994
	
   Net sales for the third quarter ended April 30, 1995 increased by 
10.3% to $26.9 million as compared to $24.4 million for the third 
quarter of fiscal 1994.  The third quarter sales for fiscal 1994 were 
affected by the non-recurring sales discussed under the nine month sales 
comparison in the amount of $700,000.  The third quarter fiscal 1995 
sales were favorably affected by the weakened U.S. dollar, which 
increased reported sales by $658,000.  The Company's sales growth for 
the third quarter of fiscal 1995 versus the same period last fiscal 
year, adjusted for the non-recurring sales and the fluctuation in 
foreign currency, was 10.8%.

   Worldwide sales of laboratory products, process filtration products 
and medical devices increased 6.6%, 25.5% and 24.9%, respectively, as 
compared to the third quarter of fiscal 1994.  The growth in laboratory 
and process filtration products has been mainly in the international 
markets.  Medical devices increased mainly in the American market in the 
intravenous therapy applications.  Membrane sales increased 3.2%.

   Gross profit increased $2.0 million or 16.8% to $14.1 million in the 
three months ended April 30, 1995, as compared to $12.1 million in the 
three months ended April 30, 1994.  As a percentage of net sales, gross 
profit increased to 52.3% from 49.4%.  The improvement in gross margin 
is primarily attributable to capacity utilization and manufacturing 
efficiency improvements, partially offset by a less favorable product 
mix due to lower membrane sales as a percentage of sales.

   Other income - net, increased to $241,000 for the three months ended 
April 30, 1995 mainly due to exchange gains on foreign currency 
transactions recorded net of hedging contracts. Other income - net, for 
the three months ended April 30, 1994 included $108,000 gain on the sale 
of Australian assets relating to the divested product lines.

   Net earnings increased $672,000 or 51.7% to $2.0 million or $.26 per 
share for the three months ended April 30, 1995, compared to $1.3 
million or $.20 per share for the three months ended April 30, 1994.  
Earnings for the third quarter fiscal 1994 included the two non-
recurring items mentioned in the nine month discussion.  Excluding the 
effect of these two non-recurring items, net earnings would have 
increased 43.4%.  Fiscal 1995 earnings per share includes the effect of 
the recently completed secondary public offering of 1,437,500 shares of 
common stock. The weighted average shares for the third quarter of 
fiscal 1995 and 1994 were 7.6 million and 6.4 million, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   For the nine months ended April 30, 1995, the Company generated cash 
from operations in the amount of $2.7 million.  Finance activities 
include the issuance, during the third quarter, of 1,437,500 shares of 
common stock at a price of $14.625 per share in a public common stock 
offering.  The net proceeds of $19.4 million were used to repay a $4 
million term note payable to NBD Bank N.A. and to reduce outstanding 
indebtedness under the Company's Credit Agreement in the amount of $12.1 
million.  The remainder of the net proceeds plus the cash provided from 
operations were used to fund capital expenditures of $5.7 million.  
Working capital at April 30, 1995 and July 31, 1994 was $31.2 million 
and $23.4 million, respectively.  The increase in working capital is 
attributed mainly to higher levels of trade receivables.  The higher 
level of sales in the last two months of the third quarter compared to 
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994 plus the increased volume of 
international sales which have longer collection periods have affected 
trade receivables.  Also increasing working capital is the reduction in 
current maturities of long term debt of $1.3 million due to the 
repayment of the term note mentioned above.  At April 30, 1995, the 
Company's unused portion of its Credit Agreement was $21.2 million.

   During the quarter, the Company settled its interest rate swap 
agreement on $5 million notional amount at a gain of $48,000.  The gain 
has been deferred and will be reflected as adjustments to interest 
expense over the appropriate periods relevant to the agreement.

Regulations" and Item 3. "Legal Proceedings" of the Company's Form 10-K 
for the year ended July 31, 1994, and Item 1. "Legal Proceedings of Part
