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


(a) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 1998, the Registrant's pre-tax
income from operations amounted to $411,125, as compared to a loss of $3,400 for
the same period last year. This improvement in results is due to an increase in
such profits during the quarter at Dextran Products Limited ("Dextran") of
$79,629 and at Veterinary Laboratories Inc. ("Vet Labs") of $224,211, as well as
a decrease in expenses at the corporate head office of $147,460. The decrease in
head office expenses during the quarter is mainly due to decreases in selling
and promotion expenses and patent amortization expenses described below. The
Registrant's year to date operating profit amounted to $969,120, as compared to
a loss of $95,015 for last year. Consistent with the quarterly changes, both
Dextran and Vet Labs have achieved significant year to date increases in such
profits, while corporate head office expenses have decreased significantly.

Sales volume this quarter increased from the same period last year by $412,209,
which is attributable to an increase in sales at Vet Labs in the quarter of
$472,054 offset by a slight decrease in third-party sales at Dextran of $59,845.
The increase in sales at Vet Labs relative to the third quarter last year is a
result of strong demand for Iron Dextran in the U.S. market and the introduction
of new injectable products. The main reason for the decrease in sales volume at
Dextran is the increase in intercompany sales of bulk materials to Vet Labs in
order to meet their sales demands. On a year to date basis, both Dextran and Vet
Labs have sales volume increases.

Gross margins increased from 27% in the third quarter last year to 34% this
quarter. Dextran's quarter over quarter gross margin decreased from 46% to 41%
while Vet Labs' gross margin increased from 11% to 23%. The margin decrease at
Dextran is due to increased intercompany sales. The intercompany product sales
are lower margin because they are further refined at Vet Labs. The increase in
margin at Vet Labs is attributable to increased sales of higher margin products,
primarily in the injectable and solution product groups. This trend in improved
margin has carried over from the previous two quarters.

Management expects strong sales and margins to continue at both Vet Labs and
Dextran.

General and administrative expenses have increased by $21,258 this quarter as
compared to the same quarter last year, primarily due to the accrual of a
retiring allowance to the former President of Chemdex, Inc., partially offset by



                                       -8-

a reduction in salary expense due to the January 1998 departure of the former
Chairman, Dr. Alec Keith.

Depreciation and amortization expenses have decreased by $22,923 as compared to
the third quarter last year primarily due to the reduction in patent
amortization resulting from the write-down of the cellulose sulphate patent at
January 31, 1998.

Selling and promotion expenses in the quarter decreased by $88,965 as compared
to the third quarter last year due to the termination during the first quarter
this year of a contract with a marketing company.

There was no significant quarter over quarter change in either research and
development expenses or interest expense.

Research and development, in conjunction with the University of British
Columbia, involving the treatment of cystic fibrosis using a form of Dextran is
continuing. Research and development, by the Rush Institute of the University of
Chicago, relating to Cellulose Sulphate gel is progressing. Clinical trials for
both projects are expected to commence in 1999, once funding and government
approvals are obtained.

Operating results for the three and nine months ended October 31, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
January 31, 1999. For further information, refer to the consolidated statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended January 31, 1998.



(b)   LIQUIDITY  AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the third quarter, the Registrant generated cash flow from operations of
$483,618 compared to the prior year third quarter cash flow from operations of
$139,400 which increase is primarily attributable to the large increase in net
income for the quarter as compared to the prior year.

There were no significant changes in receivables or inventory levels at either
Dextran or Vet Labs during the quarter.

During the third quarter, $78,561 was spent on new equipment for the plant
refurbishment at Dextran. There are no production interruptions planned for the
next quarter due to this refurbishment.



FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS SAFE HARBOR

This Form 10-Q, including the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, contains various "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events,
including, but not limited to statements regarding 

                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10
management's expectations of regulatory approval and the commencement of sales.
In addition, statements containing expressions such as "believes", "anticipates"
or "expects" used in this Form 10-Q, the Company's Annual Report, and the
Company's periodic reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q previously filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. The Company cautions that these and similar statements in this Form
10-Q, the Company's Annual Report, and in previously filed periodic reports
including reports filed on Forms 10-K and 10-Q are further qualified by
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without
limitation, changing market conditions, the progress of clinical trials, and the
results obtained, the establishment of new corporate alliances, the impact of
competitive products and pricing, and the timely development, FDA approval and
market acceptance of the Company's products, none of which can be assured.
Results actually achieved may differ materially from expected results included
in these statements as a result of these or other factors.



The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normally recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.

EXCHANGE RATE SENSITIVITY

The table below provides information about the Company's financial instruments
that are sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. All financial
instruments are held for other than trading purposes. The Company's major
exposure to exchange rate risk is that the Canadian dollar rises dramatically in
relation to the U.S. dollar and that this significantly reduces the gross margin
experienced at Dextran Products. Management monitors the margin at Dextran to
ensure that an acceptable margin level is maintained. Management has the
ability, to some extent, to adjust sales prices to maintain an acceptable margin
level.

The table presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest
rates by expected maturity dates.
