                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
   ---------------------

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions for Form 10-Q.  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 only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included.  The results of operations for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  For further
information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in the
Company's annual report for the year ended December 31, 1994.

2. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
   -------------------------

Primary and fully diluted earnings per common and common equivalent share are
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of
Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents outstanding during the year.  The
calculation of fully diluted income (loss) per Common Share assumes a different
market price than the primary earnings (loss) per Common Share for the
reacquisition of Common Shares.  This calculation does not reflect outstanding
warrants as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Loss per Common Share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average
number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents outstanding during
the year.  Options are not reflected in the calculation of loss per Common Share
as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

3. INVENTORY

        The Components of Inventory at the respective dates are as follows:

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

1. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 were $825,344 as compared to
revenues of $2,035,256 in the corresponding period last year, a decrease of
$1,209,912 or 59%.  Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were
$3,825,513 a decrease of $1,684,232 from the corresponding period last year or
31%.  The year to date decrease in revenues is due to less units sold in those
periods, as 112 units were sold in the nine months ended September 30, 1994,
while 71 units were sold in the nine months ended September 30, 1995.
International revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were
approximately $2,093,000, representing 55% of total revenues, as compared to
approximately $1,974,000 for the same period in 1994, which represented 36% of
total revenues, an increase of approximately $119,000.  The increase in
international revenues as a percentage of total revenues reflects the Company's
transition to sales representatives rather than direct sales people in domestic
territories.

Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were $1,810,408 or
47% of revenues as compared to $2,207,953 or 40% of revenues for the same period
last year.  For the three months ended September 30, 1995, cost of revenues were
$464,321 or 56% of revenues as compared to $879,584 or 43% of revenues for the
corresponding period last year.  The Company's three major product lines have
different profit margins, as well as multiple profit margins within each product
line.  In the course of the periods compared, there may be significant changes
in the cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues depending on the mix of
products sold.  The sizes of units also vary and have different costs associated
with them.  The cost of sales as a percentage of revenues differ between
laboratory and pilot plant units sold due to the difference in costs between air
driven and electric-hydraulic units.

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1995 were $956,960
as compared to $960,774 for the same period last year, a decrease of $3,814.
Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were $2,795,707
as compared to $2,860,244 for the period last year, a decrease of $64,537.  In
the first nine months ended September 30, 1995, research and development
expenses decreased by $121,179, of which approximately $100,000 was due to the
receipt by the Company of a joint federal grant whereby the Company is
reimbursed 48% of its costs related to its research with Catalytica, Inc.
Selling and marketing expenses have increased by $176,130 mainly due to the
opening of the Company's sales office in Germany.  General and administrative
expenses have decreased by $119,488 due to decrease in salaries and legal and
auditing expenses.

Interest income increased for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 to
$71,957 as compared to $19,917 in the same period last year due to the increase
in the amount of cash available for investment.

The Company had a backlog of $93,316 and $364,614 at September 30, 1995 and 1994
respectively, consisting of purchase commitments for Microfluidizer equipment.

2. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
   -------------------------------

The cash and cash equivalents balance of the Company was $2,138,448 on 
September 30, 1995, an increase of $464,637 from the December 31, 1994 balance
of $1,673,811.  The Company continues to have a line of credit with the First
National Bank of Boston equal to the lesser of $750,000 or 80% of domestic
accounts receivable less than 60 days old.  The available line as of 
October 31, 1995 was $261,680.

The Company does not currently have any other significant capital commitments.
The Company may, from time to time, consider acquisitions of complementary
business, products or technology, although it has no present understanding,
commitments or agreements with respect to any such acquisitions.

The Company believes that its cash on hand and available borrowings under its
bank line of credit will be sufficient to support its current and anticipated
operations through at least the next twelve months.
