                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
               FINANCIAL CONDITION AND SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  Consolidated net sales for Biomerica were $2,329,288 for the first quarter
of fiscal 1996 as compared to $2,190,414 for the same period in the previous
year.  This represents an increase of $138,874 (6%).  Biomerica, Lancer and
AIT all had increases in sales.  Lancer's increase was due to increases in
domestic and foreign sales.  Biomerica showed some increases in the foreign
distributor sales as well as in sales of EZ Detect.  Cost of sales increased
by $31,917 (3%) in part due to the increase in sales.  Lancer realized
decreased cost of sales as a percentage of sales due to realization of
manufacturing efficiency.  Biomerica had higher wages and higher materials
costs as a percentage of sales on some products.

  Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $20,766 (3%).
Lancer had an increase of $19,490 due to increased marketing and sales
personnel costs, which was partially offset by reduced professional fees.
Biomerica had increased costs of $2,887 due in part to increased wages, while
AIT had a decrease of $1,611.  Research and development costs increased by
$9,585, primarily due to increases in materials costs and wages at Biomerica.

  Interest expense decreased by $17,112 due to decreased interest expenses at
Lancer due to lower debt.  Biomerica had lower debt expenses as well as
reduction of certain interests totaling $11,254, including $6,100 in interest
owed to the President.

  Minority interest in net losses of consolidated subsidiaries represents
minority interests in the gain of Lancer's and AIT's other shareholders.
Please refer to Notes 2 and 3 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in the report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31, 1995, for a
