                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

The Company's revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 1998 were $616,940 as
compared to $506,105 for the same period last year, or an increase of 21.9%.
Revenue is comprised of:

     Royalty revenue from patented products grew to $338,180 up 9.9% over the
     same period last year. There are 23 clients who use our patented
     technologies on their products and this growth is purely from our client's
     increased sales of their products. No new licensees were aadded during this
     quarter. The company is currently testing other products that have
     exclusive and non-exclusive licensing opportunities.

     Product sales and technology sales were $278,760 for the quarter ended
     September 20, 1998 as compared to $198,335 for the same period last year,
     an increase of 40.6%. This increase is attributable, for the most part, to
     the increase in sales to two clients who are paying a use fee for the
     technology. Actual sales of product were down 21% over the same period
     last year. This decrease was anticipated as many clients accelerated
     their orders in the fourth quarter of last year.

The Company's gross profit was up 24.0% to $554,746 from $447,291 for the same
period last year.

    Gross Profit percentage on sales was 90.0% for the quarter ended September
    30, 1998 as opposed to 88.3% for the same period last year. This increase
    is due to the increase in sales reported for technology sales which
    carry no associated direct costs.

    Royalty income is included in gross profit at 100%.

SG&A expenses increased $83,030 or 23.7% to $432,957, in the quarter ended
September 30, 1998, up from $349,927 for the same period last year.

   This increase is attributable, in part to the increase in depreciation
   expense ($13,000) due to the upgrade of the company's systems and employee
   costs ($66,018) reflecting the increased level of management and technical
   resources.

Earnings before taxes were $116,370 up 11.1% from prior year's results of
$104,785 for the same quarter.

Net earnings were $69,720 for the quarter ended 9/30/98, an increase of 10.8%
over the quarter ended 9/30/98.

Earnings per share were $0.016 for the quarter, up 10.8% over the same period
last year.

Financial Condition

Working capital decreased by $131,884 for the quarter, which includes a dividend
payment of $131,367, which was paid to shareholders in September 1998.
Excluding the dividend payment, working capital was flat for the quarter.
Management believes that its current working capital, along with expected
income and expense streams, are sufficient to maintain its current level of
operations.

PART II - Other Information

The Company currently has two facilities located in New Jersey. The
manufacturing and quality assurance functions of the Company are located at 35
Columbia Road, Branchburg, New Jersey. The Company signed a five year lease with
a party not affiliated with the Company for the Columbia Rd facility.

     In June 1998, the company purchased the building and land at 35 Industrial
Parkway for expansion. The new facility is secured by a mortgage with a bank and
is partially occupied by Biosearch Medical Products, Inc., the prior owner of
the facility and an affiliated party. The Company has moved its Research and
Development as well as its administrative staff to the new facility. See the
financial statements included herein for the terms of the agreements.

     The facilities will be adequate for the Company's operations for the
foreseeable future.
