                          Notes to Financial Statements

1.       Unaudited Statements:

         The accompanying  unaudited financial  statements have been prepared by
         the  Company  in  accordance   with   generally   accepted   accounting
         principles.  In the opinion of management,  the accompanying  financial
         statements  contain  all  adjustments   necessary  to  present  a  fair
         statement  of the  results  for the interim  periods  presented.  It is
         suggested that these financial  statements be read in conjunction  with
         the financial  statements  and notes thereto  included in the Company's
         Annual  Report  filed on Form  10-KSB for the year ended  December  31,
         1995.  Revenues  and net income  (loss) for any interim  period are not
         necessarily  indicative  of results that may be expected for the entire
         year.

2.       Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock:

         Net income  (loss) per share of common  stock is based on the  weighted
         average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period
         adjusted for  undeclared  dividends on  Preferred  Stock.  Common stock
         equivalents  have been  excluded from the  computation  of net loss per
         share of common  stock for March 31,  1996  since the  result  would be
         anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents of approximately 2,082,338 have
         been  included  in the  computation  of net  income per share of common
         stock for March 31, 1995.

3.       Subsequent Event:

         In April 1996 the  Company  entered  into an  agreement  modifying  and
         extending its  financing  agreement  with its  commercial  lender.  The
         agreement  was extended to January 31, 1998 and the advance rate on the
         Company's eligible Accounts Receivable was increased from 70% to 75%.

4.       Contingencies:

         In  July  1994  the  New  York  State   Department   of   Environmental
         Conservation  announced stringent standards with regard to the emission
         of ozone.  The Company is working with State and County  authorities on
         an established timeline to bring the Company into compliance with these
         standards.  The Company has hired  consultants to measure the Company's
         ozone emissions and, in conjunction with Statement County  authorities,
         to  design  necessary   pollution   control  equipment  to  meet  these
         standards.  The estimated cost of such pollution  control  equipment is
         approximately  $300,000. In the event the Company does not install such
         pollution control equipment, it will not obtain a permit to operate its
         electron  beam  accelerator,   which  would  result  in  a  significant
         reduction in revenues and would have a material  adverse  effect on the
         Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

                      CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Current assets have increased  $214,049 to $3,050,566 at March 31, 1996 compared
to $2,834,517 at December 31, 1995. The increase was primarily due to a $162,671
increase  in accounts  receivable  and a $223,710  increase in prepaid  expenses
(primarily  insurance)  offset  partially  by a $165,809  decrease in cash.  The
Company  had  working  capital  of  $1,339,591  at March 31,  1996  compared  to
$1,607,220  at December  31,  1995.  This  decrease  of $267,629  was the result
primarily  of the  acquisition  of fixed  assets  (instruments)  as the  Company
invested  in its  instrument  kits to better  serve its  customers.  The working
capital  ratio  decreased to 1.78 to 1 at March 31, 1996 compared to 2.3 to 1 at
December 31, 1995.

The company  currently plans to expand its business both  geographically  and by
increasing  its  portfolio  of  reprocessing  services  to include  new  service
offerings such as endoscopy procedures instrument sets. In addition, the Company
will be required to expend approximately $300,000 on pollution control equipment
in the future.  The Company believes that the anticipated  future cash flow from
operations,  along with its cash on hand and  available  funds under its working
capital line of credit will be sufficient to meet working  capital  requirements
during  1996.  There can be no  assurance,  however,  that the Company  will not
require  additional  working capital and, if it does require such capital,  that
such capital will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all.

INFLATION

The Company does not anticipate that inflation will have a significant effect on
its business  particularly since the United States, the only market in which the
company currently intends to operate, is presently experiencing a relatively low
rate of inflation.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES

         Revenues  for  the  three  months  ended  March  31,  1996,   decreased
approximately  $85,000  or 4%  to  approximately  $2,056,000  from  revenues  of
approximately $2,141,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1995. The decrease
in revenues  was  primarily  attributable  to an  approximate  $143,000 or 42.8%
decrease  in revenues  in the  Company's  contract  sterilization  business,  an
approximate $29,000 or 4.1% decrease in revenues in the

                                       8

Company's radiation processing of industrial products business, partially offset
by an  $87,000  or 7.9%  increase  in the  Company's  revenues  in its  hospital
services division.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

         Total expenses increased approximately $87,000 or 4.2% to approximately
$2,153,000  for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to  approximately
$2,065,000  for the three months ended March 31, 1995.  Operating  expenses have
decreased  approximately  $53,000 or 3.4% due to  efficiencies  attained  in the
Company's processing operations.  Selling,  general and administrative  expenses
have  increased  approximately  $144,000 or 31.6% due  primarily to  investments
being made in the management and sales areas of the Company.

NET INCOME (LOSS)
APPLICABLE to COMMON SHAREHOLDERS

         Net  income  (loss)  applicable  to common  shareholders  was a loss of
approximately  ($128,000)  or ($.04) per share for the three  months ended March
31, 1996 compared to net income of  approximately  $48,000 or $.01 per share for
the three months ended March 31, 1995.
