ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.


Financial Condition and Liquidity:

     As of February 28, 1995, the Company's cash position totaled
$18,056,400.   For the nine months ended February 28,  1995,  the
Company  generated cash from operating activities of  $1,695,700.
As  of May 31, 1994, the Company's deutsche mark denominated debt
totaled 9,750,000 marks.  Since the beginning of the fiscal year,
and  through  March 30, 1995, total deutsche mark debt  has  been
reduced   1,750,000  marks.  On  March  30,  1995,  the   Company
refinanced  its remaining 8,000,000 deutsche mark  bank debt  (or
$5,460,400)  with  a  U.S. bank under a 6.9% interest  rate  swap
agreement  due September 30, 1998.  The Company intends  to  make
periodic principal payments, but is not required to do so.

      The Company does not have any material capital commitments.
Management  believes  that the Company's  current  cash  balance,
internally generated funds, and amounts available under the lines
of   credit  are  sufficient  to  support  operations   for   the
foreseeable  future.  Management also believes additional  credit
lines would be available should the need arise.


Results of Operations:

Net sales

     Net sales for the three months ended February 28, 1995, were
$7,234,500  compared to $7,004,300 in the prior year three  month
period,  and  for  the  nine  month  period,  net  sales  totaled
$21,476,200 versus $22,293,800 last year.  Prior year  three  and
nine  month sales included $222,400 and $1,210,100, respectively,
of  the  Company's  blood  bag business  in  Germany,  which  was
discontinued.   Excluding blood bag sales last  year,  net  sales
increased 7%  in the third quarter due to higher  sales  of  the
Company's  Capture (Registered Trademark) product line and favorable
rates  of  foreign exchange, primarily in Germany, which caused
German deutsche mark sales to be translated into higher US dollar sales.

Gross profit

      Gross  profit, as a percentage of sales revenue,  increased
during  the three and nine month periods ended February 28,  1995
as  compared to the same periods in fiscal 1994.  The increase in
gross  profit  can be attributed to discontinuing  the  Company's
blood  bag  business in Germany last fiscal year, as  blood  bags
were  sold  at  a  lesser gross margin than the  Company's  other
products  (see  Net  sales above).  In addition,  more  favorable
foreign  exchange rates in Europe in the current year  three  and
nine  month periods reduced the cost of goods purchased  in  U.S.
dollars and sold in Europe in local currencies.

Operating expenses

      Instrument research and development expenses for the  three
and  nine  months  ended February 28, 1995 totaled  $243,900  and
$586,200 respectively, compared to $535,100 and $1,736,800 in the
comparable periods last year.  The decline in instrument research
and  development  expenses reflects the near  completion  of  the
development phase of the Company's blood bank instrument project,
known as the ABS 2000.

Other income

     Other income increased $59,400 during the three months ended
February  28,  1995  as compared to the same  period  last  year,
primarily due to higher interest rates in the current year period
over  last  year,  which  increased  earnings  on  invested  cash
reserves.

Provision for income taxes

      The  provision  for  income  taxes  increased  $232,500  to
$449,900  for the three months ended February 28, 1995,  and  for
the nine months ended February 28, 1995, the provision for income
taxes  increased  $577,400  to  $1,220,100.   This  increase  can
principally  be attributed to a reduced research and  development
tax credit resulting from the decline in research and development
spending   (see  Operating  expense,  above).   The  prior   year
provision  included  a retroactive research and  development  tax
credit   of   $95,000   resulting   from   the   Omnibus   Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993 enacted on August 10, 1993.
