                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     Securities and Exchange Commission on August 3, 2000.

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

Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion
contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The
Company's actual results could differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this section and
those discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ended
April 30, 2000 and the filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-
looking statements are reasonable, the Company can not guarantee future results,
levels of performance or achievements. Moreover, neither the Company nor any
other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the
forward-looking statements. The Company is under no obligation to update any of
the forward-looking statements after the filing of the Form 10-Q to conform such
statements or actual results or to changes in expectations.

Potential risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: an inability
to achieve results from the pre-clinical studies which are determined to merit
requesting FDA approval to begin clinical trials for one or more of the
Company's products; an inability to receive FDA approval to begin clinical
trials for one or more of its products; an inability to enter into or maintain
the future strategic collaborative relationships the Company believes are
essential to further develop and commercialize the Company's products;
uncertainties associated with the lengthy and complicated testing and regulatory
approval process, in particular the risk that the Company's products, assuming
pre-clinical tests are successful, may be found ineffective during clinical
trials, if any, or the Company is unable to obtain the necessary regulatory
approvals to commercialize these products; uncertainties associated with
obtaining and enforcing patents for the Company's products and technology; the
risks of infringing patents held by other parties; uncertainties associated with
changing or new technology; difficulties in scaling up manufacturing operations
to commercial scale and in obtaining raw materials in a quantity and at prices
necessary to produce profitable products; an inability to have the Company's
products manufactured by future strategic partners or contract manufacturing
companies; and failure to obtain market acceptance, significant market share, or
third party reimbursement at profitable price levels.

Significant risks and uncertainties are associated with the Company's ability to
obtain the required financing to develop its products. The Company's projected
capital requirements are based on the expectation that strategic partners will
assume further development and regulatory costs for each product during Phase II
clinical trials. If that does not happen, the amount of financing the Company
will be required to raise could increase substantially. If the Company is unable
to raise adequate financing, it may be required to delay, scale-back, or
eliminate one or more product development programs, or sell the rights to
certain technologies or products.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended July 31, 2000 and 1999:

The Research and Development expenses for the three month period ended July 31,
2000 were $109,841, compared to $43,698 for the same period in the prior year.
This increase is attributed to increases in salaries and contract wages of
$20,800, laboratory rent of $23,700 and laboratory supplies of $23,000. The
increased expenses over the same period in the prior year are due to increased
research activity and the addition of a California laboratory.

General and Administrative expenses for the three month period ended July 31,
2000 were $233,969, compared to $172,508 for the same period in the prior year.
The increase was the result of increases in advertising expenses of $34,000,
legal expenses of $14,000, travel expenses of $11,000 and salaries, consulting
and director fees of $28,000. This increase is partially offset by decreases in
moving expenses of $14,000, insurance expenses of $7,000 and depreciation of
$4,000.

The net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2000 was $253,683, compared to
$220,357 for the same period in the prior year. This increased net loss resulted
from the increases in operating expenses noted above, offset by $83,000 of
interest income from investment earnings.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has financed its operations since September 1990, when the current
management became involved, through the issuance of debt and equity securities
and loans from stockholders. As of July 31, 2000 the Company had $5,616,147 in
total current assets and working capital of $5,277,849. The Company has invested
excess working capital in short-term money market investment instruments. The
Company believes its cash and cash equivalents at July 31, 2000 will be
sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for the next 36 months.

Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended July 31, 2000
was $206,948 compared to $194,393 for the comparable period of the prior year.
Operating activities consisted primarily of product research and development.

Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended July 31, 2000
was $119,631 compared to $7,543 for the comparable period of the prior year.
Investing activities consisted primarily of the purchase of equipment and
expenditures related to the patent rights.

Cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended July 31,
2000 was $430,102 compared to $99,711 for the comparable period of the prior
year. Financing activities consisted primarily of the sale of common stock.

The Company is in the pre-clinical trial stage in the development of its
products. These products

7
<PAGE>

must undergo further development and testing prior to submission to the FDA for
approval to market its products. This additional development and testing and, if
approved, the FDA required clinical testing will require significant additional
financing. Management is actively pursuing strategic alliance and joint venture
agreements to assist the Company in acquiring the necessary additional
financing, although there are no commitments for any such alliances or joint
ventures as of July 31, 2000. If the Company raises additional funds through the
issuance of equity securities, the percentage ownership of existing stockholders
will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution or such equity
securities may provide for rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of
the common stock.

There can be no assurance that FDA approval will be granted, if and when it is
applied for one or more of the Company's products, or that necessary funding
will be obtained. The Company does not have any firm commitments for additional
capital as of July 31, 2000.
