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



The following is Management's discussion and analysis of significant factors
that have affected the Company's operating results and financial condition
during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1995.


                             Results of Operations
                             ---------------------

Quarter Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Quarter Ended June 30 1994.
-----------------------------------------------------------

For the quarter ended June 30, 1995, net sales were $9,521,000 compared with net
sales of $9,964,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1994. Net income for the 1995
quarter was $254,000 or $.07 per share compared with net income of $235,000 or
$.07 per share for the second quarter of 1994.

The 4.4% decline in net sales resulted from a decrease in domestic sales due to
soft market conditions for laboratory equipment in the United States offset by
stronger export sales and higher sales by the Company's European subsidiaries.
Income from operations decreased to $251,000 from $304,000 in the 1994 quarter
as a result of the 4.4% sales decline, an increase in research, development and
engineering expenses due to the establishment late in 1994 of a bioprocess
equipment division and partially offset by an increase in the gross profit
percentage from 37.6% in 1994 to 40.1% in 1995 due to the Company's continuing
efforts to improve operating efficiencies and to control costs as well as the
positive effects of the weaker dollar on the product costs of the Company's
European subsidiaries. Interest income increased to $55,000 from $28,000 in the
1994 quarter due to higher average cash and cash equivalents and higher interest
rates. Provision for income taxes as a percentage of income before taxes
decreased in the 1995 quarter due to a larger proportion of the 1995 income
resulting from the Company's foreign subsidiaries, a significant portion of
which is not subject to income taxes due to carryforward tax losses on which
income tax benefits were not previously provided.

Six Months Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Six Months Ended June 30 1994.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

For the six months ended June 30, 1995, net sales were $18,958,000 compared with
net sales of $19,230,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1994. Net income for
the 1995 period was $454,000 or $.13 per share compared with net income of
$367,000 or $.10 per share for the first six months of 1994.

The slight decline in net sales resulted from a decrease in domestic sales due
to soft market conditions for laboratory equipment in the United States mostly
offset by stronger export sales and higher sales by the Company's European
subsidiaries. Income from operations decreased to $483,000 from $504,000 in the
1994 period as a result of the sales decline, an increase in research,
development and engineering expenses due to the establishment late in 1994 of a
bioprocess equipment division and partially offset by an increase in the gross
profit percentage from 37.5% in 1994 to 39.6% in 1995 due to the Company's
continuing efforts to improve operating efficiencies and to control costs as
well as the positive effects of the weaker dollar on the product costs of the
Company's European subsidiaries. Interest income increased to $120,000 from
$55,000 in the 1994 period due to higher average cash and cash equivalents and
higher interest rates. Provision for income taxes as a percentage of income
before taxes decreased in the 1995 period due to a larger proportion of the 1995
income coming from the Company's foreign subsidiaries, a significant portion of
which is not subject to income taxes due to carryforward tax losses on which
income tax benefits were not previously provided.

                              Financial Condition
                              -------------------

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

During the period ended June 30, 1995, Cash and Cash Equivalents decreased to
$5,748,000 from $7,142,000 at December 31, 1994. The decrease in cash resulted
primarily from an increase in inventories from $12,709,000 at December 31, 1994
to $13,935,000 at June 30, 1995. Inventories increased primarily as a result of
the need to replenish inventories to the level necessary to ensure an efficient
work flow through the Company's plant, in anticipation of orders for specialized
fermentation and cell culture systems which generally have long lead times and
in preparation for a two week summer shutdown of the manufacturing facility.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
------------------------------------

During the periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, net cash used by operating
activities amounted to $898,000 and $90,000, respectively. The primary reasons
for the $808,000 decrease between the two periods were: (a) inventories
increased $1,131,000 vs. a decrease of $191,000 in 1994; (b) prepaid expenses
and other current assets increased $154,000 vs. a decrease of $152,000 in 1994;
and were offset by (a) net income of $454,000 in 1995 vs. $367,000 in 1994; and
(b) a decrease in accounts receivable of $266,000 in 1995 vs. an increase of
$579,000 in 1994.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities
------------------------------------

Net cash used by investing activities amounted to $365,000 in 1995 vs. $225,000
in 1994, primarily as a result of additions to property, plant and equipment.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities
------------------------------------

Net cash used by financing activities amounted to $236,000 in the 1995 period
vs. $80,000 in the 1994 period. The major reason for the difference resulted
from a Common stock dividend paid by the Company in the amount of $179,000 in
1995.

Management believes that the resources available to the Company, including its
line of credit, are sufficient to meet its near-term needs and its strong
unleveraged balance sheet provides the basis for any long-term financing if the
need should arise.
