Item 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes thereto of the Company
included elsewhere herein.

Introduction

     As a consequence of the closing on August 31, 1992 of the BP Transactions
which are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and
which for financial reporting purposes are accounted for as a reverse
acquisition, the results for the year ended June 30, 1994 are those of the
Company for the whole year.  The results for the year ended June 30, 1993 are
those of A&B for the full year and those of the Company other than A&B ("AMBI
results") for the period from September 1, 1992 through June 30, 1993.  The
results for the year ended June 30, 1992 are solely those of A&B.

     The reporting currency for the Consolidated Financial Statements is the
Great Britain Pound ("GBP").  Most of the figures in this discussion are
therefore stated in that currency.  Certain salient figures are also shown in
U.S. dollars based on an average exchange rate for income and expenses of
$1.4987 per GBP for 1994, 1.5448 for 1993, and 1.744 for 1992, and for assets
and liabilities of 1.5424 for 1994, and 1.5091 for 1993.

General

     The Company's historical revenues have been primarily attributable to sales
of its own products.  The Company also acts as U.K. selling agent for certain
products of both affiliated as well as other companies.  This latter activity
has decreased in the year ended June 30, 1994 due to the Company relinquishing
its U.K. agency to sell certain products.  The Company also receives royalty
income from users of its patented technology.  This source of income is
increasing.

     Cost of sales includes both direct and indirect manufacturing costs.
Research costs includes internal expenditure in respect of the Company's U.S.
laboratory facilities (salaries, materials, occupancy) and monies expended with
external research facilities.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses include management salaries,
clerical and administrative overheads, legal and public relations fees, and
costs associated with selling of the Company's products.

     The Company capitalizes patent costs, as these generate royalty income on
an ongoing basis.  These costs are amortized over

                                       5

<PAGE>
periods of five to fifteen years.


Results of Operations

     The Company has an accumulated deficit due to the write-off of purchased
goodwill (amortized over five years from 1986-1990) and purchased research and
development costs (written-off in the year ended June 30, 1993 in connection
with the BP Transactions described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated
Financial Statements included elsewhere herein).

Three years ended June 30, 1994, 1993, and 1992

     Sales

     Sales decreased 18.0% to GBP 6.42 million ($ 9.61 million) in 1994 from
GBP 7.82 million ($ 12.08 million) in 1993.  The figures for 1993 include sales
of GBP 1.33 million from products sold by the Company under an agency agreement
which terminated June 30, 1993; accordingly there are no sales of these products
in the 1994 figures.  Sales of the Company's own products declined by GBP 0.31
million, largely as a result of a reduction in sales to Australia, where the
1993 figure had increased due to a change in marketing arrangements; inventory
which was previously treated as on consignment was sold to the distributor. 
This was offset by increased sales in North and South America.  Sales of
products under continuing agency agreements increased by GBP 0.24 million.  The
figure for 1994 includes GBP 1.66 million ($2.48 million) in sales made to
related parties; in 1993 sales to related parties amounted to GBP 2.22 million
($3.44 million).  The main reason for this decrease was the change in marketing
arrangements mentioned above.

     The Company's 1993 sales of GBP 7.82 million ($ 12.08 million) were 39.3%
higher than the 1992 sales of GBP 5.62 million ($ 9.8 million).  Approximately
11% of the total increase was due to the inclusion of the AMBI results.  The
balance of this increase was primarily due to increased sales of the Company's
own products, principally in Australia (due to the changed arrangements detailed
above) and Latin America.

     Cost of Sales

     Cost of sales was GBP 2.35 million ($ 3.53 million) in 1994, a decrease of
36.2% from the 1993 figure of GBP 3.69 million ($5.71 million), and as a
percentage of revenues was 36.7% compared to 47.2% in 1993.  The decrease in
cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was largely due to the inclusion in
sales of a greater proportion of own manufactured products than in the previous
year.  These products provide higher margins than the agency goods.

     Cost of sales was GBP 3.69 million ($ 5.71 million) in 1993,

                                       6

<PAGE>
an increase of 51.9% over the 1992 level of GBP 2.43 million ($ 4.24 million),
and as a percentage of revenues was 47.2% compared to 43.3% in 1992.  The
increase in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue was due to increased raw
material costs.

     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses


     Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") was GBP 2.33
million, GBP 1.40 million, and GBP 0.98 million in 1994, 1993 and 1992
respectively, representing increases of 66.4% in 1994 from 1993, and 43.3% in
1993 from 1992.  SG&A as a percentage of sales was 36.4%, 17.9% and 17.4% in
1994, 1993 and 1992 respectively.  The main components of the increase in 1994
were recruitment of additional sales staff, and increased public relations costs
and other professional fees.

     Research Costs

     Research Costs were GBP 0.49 million, GBP 0.30 million, and GBP 0.13
million in 1994, 1993 and 1992 respectively, representing increases of 64.4% in
1994 from 1993, and 129.2% in 1993 from 1992.  Research costs as a percentage of
sales were 7.6%, 3.8% and 2.3% respectively.

     The Company has strengthened its in-house research team with several new
appointments during the year.

     Income Before Tax Expense

     Income before tax expense was GBP 1.30 million ($ 1.94 million) in 1994,
compared with a loss of GBP 9.10 million ($ 14.06 million) in 1993, although
this later figure included the write-off of purchased research and development
referred to in Results of Operations above.

     In the quarter ended June 30, 1994, the Company's income before tax expense
declined to GBP 51,000 as a result primarily of a decline in sales resulting
from a price increase effective April 1, 1994, causing some customers to place
orders prior to the price increase.  In addition, the quarterly results included
a provision for obsolete inventory resulting from a management review, fixed
costs not being fully absorbed by the lower production levels, and a variety of
individually small charges.

     Income before tax expense was GBP 1.93 million ($3.37 million) in 1992.

     Tax Expense

     In 1994, the Company's pretax income was substantially offset by net
operating losses.  Pretax income in 1993 included a large loss relating to the
write-off of purchased research and development which was not deductible and
which therefore did not generate a corresponding tax benefit.  Since the
Company's 1992

                                       7

<PAGE>
financial statements included only the Company's U.K. operations, the tax rate
was at the U.K. level of 33%.  The effective tax rate may be expected to vary in
the future depending upon the respective levels of income in the U.S. and the
U.K.  Refer to Note 11 to the financial statements for a fuller analysis of the
tax charge.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of June 30, 1994 the Company had working capital of GBP 4.77 million

($7.35 million), which includes cash and cash equivalents of GBP 3.27 million
($5.05 million).  On June 30, 1993, working capital was GBP 3.81 million ($5.75
million), which included cash and cash equivalents of GBP 2.37 million ($3.57
million).  The non-cash components of working capital are therefore virtually
unchanged (approx. GBP 1.5 million).

     During 1994 the Company generated cash from operations of GBP 1.71 million
($2.56 million).  The Company used a portion of these funds to repay short-term
borrowings in the U.K., and for capital expenditure, and for payment of
preferred stock dividends.

     The Company anticipates expansion of its pharmaceutical research and
development work, and will among other things, be expanding its facilities,
acquiring additional equipment, and hiring additional personnel.  The Company
may incur significant operating losses as it expands its business.  The Company
believes it has cash on hand to provide for its anticipated expanded operations
for at least one year.  The nature of research and development is such that new
discoveries and improvements may necessitate the Company to seek financing to
take advantage of the market opportunities afforded by such discoveries and
improvements.

     The Company is considering, among other things, raising capital through
corporate partnerships, private placements and public offerings of securities.

Inflation and Prevailing Economic Conditions

     The Company does not believe inflation has had a significant impact on the
Company's operations.

     The Company does not believe exchange rates have had a significant impact
on the Company's operations, as its main trading currency, GBP has been fairly
stable.

Seasonality

                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Applied Microbiology, Inc.:




We have audited the consolidated financial statements in Great Britain pounds
sterling of Applied Microbiology, Inc. and subsidiary as listed in the
accompanying index.  In connection with our audits of the consolidated
financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedules
as listed in the accompanying index.  These consolidated financial statements
and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above in
Great Britain pounds sterling present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of Applied Microbiology, Inc. and subsidiary as of June 30,
1994 and 1993, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 1994, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles.  Also in our opinion, the
related financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the
basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in
all material respects, the information set forth therein.

     shares of common stock of the Company to the Burns Philp Group in
     exchange for acquiring all the issued and outstanding shares of Aplin &
     Barrett Limited ("A&B").  Aplin & Barrett Limited is a U.K. company,
     whose principal activities are the manufacture and marketing of
     preservatives, pharmaceutical products, cheese starter cultures, and
     other ingredients for the dairy industry.  Since 1985, A&B had been part
     of the Burns Philp Group.  Also on August 31, 1992, the Burns Philp Group
     paid to the Company $1,500,000 in consideration for acquiring 1,500
     shares of non-convertible preferred stock of the Company having an
     aggregate liquidation value of $1,500,000.

     An additional 935,000 shares of the Company's common stock was reserved
     for issuance to the Burns Philp Group in July 1993 if A&B's fiscal 1993
     budgeted revenues from certain products were realised.  This condition
     was met, and provision made for the issuing of those shares.  The shares
     were issued on July 2, 1993.

     The preceding transactions were consummated pursuant to an Agreement for
     the Purchase and Sale of Stock dated as of June 30, 1992 (the "Purchase
     Agreement").

     Pursuant to an agreement dated June 29, 1992, (the "Technology
     Agreement") with the Burns Philp Group, the Company licensed certain
     purification technology (the "Technology") from the Burns Philp Group in
     exchange for 850,000 shares of the Company's common stock.  The
     technology was valued at $3,719,000 based on the market value of the
     Company's stock issued.

     As a result of the preceding transactions (the "BP transactions"), and of
     prior acquisitions of shares of the Company's common stock, the Burns
     Philp Group currently owns 11,583,837 shares of common stock, which
     constitutes approximately 64% of the currently issued and outstanding
     shares of common stock.  In addition to the ownership of common stock,
     the Burns Philp Group owns 1,500 shares valued at $1,500,000 of
     non-convertible preferred stock of the Company.  


     Following the BP transactions, the Company continues as a publicly traded
     corporation with A&B as a wholly owned operating subsidiary.  The
     acquisition of A&B by the Company and the issue of common stock to the
     Burns Philp Group resulted in the Burns Philp Group obtaining a majority
     voting interest in the Company.  Generally accepted accounting principles
     require that the company whose stockholders retain the majority voting
     interest in a combined business be treated as the acquiror for accounting
     purposes.  As a consequence, the BP transactions have been accounted for
     as a "reverse acquisition" for financial reporting purposes and A&B is
     deemed to have acquired, at date of the BP transactions, a 65% interest
     in the Company.  Despite the financial reporting requirement to account
     for the acquisition as a "reverse acquisition", the Company remains the
     continuing legal entity and registrant for Securities and Exchange
     Commission reporting purposes.

                NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     Due to the "reverse acquisition", the reporting currency for the combined
     entity is the Great Britain pounds sterling (GBP).  For informational
     purposes, unaudited US$ translated consolidated balance sheets and
     consolidated statements of operations have been provided.  For the assets
     and liabilities the exchange rates used are 1994 1.5424, 1993 1.5091, and
     for the statements of operations 1994 1.4987, 1993 1.5448, 1992 1.744.

     The Company has adopted A&B's June 30 fiscal year which commences on July
     1 and ends on June 30.  Pursuant to the change in fiscal year, the
     Company filed a transitional period 10K report for the eight month period
     up to August 31, 1992.

     The figures for the year ended June 30, 1994 include the results of both
     Applied Microbiology, Inc., and Aplin & Barrett Limited for the full
     year.  Those for the year ended June 30, 1993 include Applied
     Microbiology, Inc., results for the 10 months then ended, and Aplin &
     Barrett Limited results for the full year.  Those for the year ended 1992
     comprise solely the results of Aplin & Barrett Limited.

     In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined
     in FASB Statement No. 2 "Accounting for Research and Development Costs"
     and FASB Interpretation No. 4 "Applicability of FASB Statement No. 2 to
     Business Combinations Accounted for by the Purchase Method", the
     adjustments to the consolidated financial statements account for the
     Burns Philp Group's purchase of the value of the Company's research and
     development costs that relate to products that are not yet commercially
     successful, as an expense in 1993.


2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


     a)   Consolidation

          The consolidated financial statements include the results of
          operation and financial position of the Company and its wholly
          owned affiliate, Aplin & Barrett Limited, which is incorporated
          in Great Britain.  The acquisition of Aplin & Barrett Limited on
          August 31, 1992 has been accounted for by the purchase method,
          and specifically a "reverse acquisition" as described in note 1
          above.

     b)   Cash Equivalents

          Cash equivalents include money market accounts.  For purposes of
          the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly
          liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months
          or less to be cash equivalents.

     c)   Inventory

          Inventory is valued at lower of cost (first-in, first-out,
          including attributable overhead expenditure) or market value, and
          consists of:

                NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


     d)   Property and Equipment

          Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is
          provided using the straight-line method to write-off assets over
          their estimated useful lives.  The estimated useful lives are as
          follows:

               Buildings and building
                 improvements           -    50 years
               Furniture and fixtures   -    20 years
               Machinery and equipment  -    5 or 10 years
               Office machinery         -    5 or 6 years
               Motor vehicles           -    5 years


     e)   Patent Costs & Licensed Technology

          Patent costs and licensed technology have been capitalized and
          are being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging
          from five to fifteen years.

     f)   Research and Development

          Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

     g)   Net(Loss)/Earnings Per Share

          Earnings per share for the year ended June 30, 1994 is computed
          based on the weighted average number of shares actually
          outstanding plus the shares that would be outstanding assuming
          the exercise of dilutive stock options, all of which are
          considered to be common stock equivalents.  The number of shares
          that would be issued from the exercise of stock options and
          warrants has been reduced by the number of shares that could have
          been purchased from the proceeds at the average market price of
          the Company's stock.

          Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of
          average shares outstanding for 1993 because the effect of such
          inclusion would be to increase earnings per share.  There were no
          common stock equivalents in 1992.

4.   NOTES PAYABLE

     In connection with the purchase of automobiles, the Company has
     borrowed approximately GBP 38,800.  These loans bear interest at rates
     of 4.6% and 8.0% per annum, mature on September 6, 1997 and December 6,
     1997, require approximate monthly payments of principal and interest in
     the amount of GBP 447 and GBP 394, and are secured by the automobiles.


5.   BANK LINE OF CREDIT

     The Company maintains a line of credit for working capital purposes in
     the U.K. of GBP 300,000 and pays interest on outstanding balances at
     the rate of 1% over Barclays Bank plc base rate.  The arrangement
     expires in October 1994 and is reviewed for renewal on an annual basis. 
     The facility was not being used at June 30, 1994.  This line of credit
     includes an annual fee of GBP 625.


6.   ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED EXPENSES


     The following items are included in accounts payable and accrued

7.   PREFERRED STOCK

     The Company is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred
     stock, with a $0.01 par value, in one or more series and to fix the powers,
     designations, preferences and rights of each series. The outstanding
     issue of 1,500 shares of non-voting, non-convertible stock at June 30, 
     1994 and 1993 is entitled to cumulative annual dividends at the prime
     rate of Citibank N.A. in effect from time to time payable in quarterly
     instalments commencing January 1, 1993. These shares are mandatorily
     redeemable at $1,000 per share plus accrued dividends on consummation
     by the Company of a public offering of its securities for cash on Form
     S-1 or an equivalent form. Dividends payable on this stock at June 30, 
     1994 were approximately GBP 17,000 ($26,000), which were paid in July.

     The Company's previous issue of 1,145 shares of non-voting preferred stock
     which was outstanding at June 30, 1993 was converted to common stock during
     the year ended June 30, 1994 (see note 8 below).

8.   CAPITAL STOCK

     The Company had issued 1,145 shares of non-voting preferred stock, 
     entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of $120 per share payable
     in semi-annual instalments commencing July 1, 1992.  The preferred
     stock was converted by all of the preferred shareholders in September
     1993 to common stock.  Each share of preferred stock which had a value
     of $1,000 was converted in accordance with the terms of the preferred
     stock offering at a conversion price of $3.50 per share of common stock
     into 285.7 shares of common stock.

     The Company had outstanding warrants for the purchase of its common
     stock as follows:
                                       Number of   Exercise price

     At June 30, 1994, 1,527,025 shares were issuable upon exercise of the
     above warrants.  All such warrants were available to be exercised
     immediately.  The warrants expire between 1994 and 2003.  Certain of
     the warrants include anti-dilution clauses.

     On April 10, 1986, the Company adopted a Nonqualified Stock Option Plan
     whereby options to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company's common
     stock may be granted to consultants and Business Advisory Board and
     Scientific Advisory Board members.

     The Company adopted three Incentive Stock Option Plans ('Incentive
     Plans') whereby options to purchase an aggregate of 2,250,000 shares of
     the Company's common stock may be granted to officers, directors,
     employees, consultants and others who render services to the Company. 
     The exercise price per share for the options granted under the
     Incentive Plans may not be less than the fair value of the Company's
     common stock on the date of grant.  The options expire between 1994 and
     2002.

     A summary of stock option activity related to the Company's stock
     option plans is as follows:

11.  INCOME TAXES

     The income tax expense/(benefit) consists of:

                                  1994      1993      1992

     The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109
     as of July 1, 1992, the cumulative effect of which was not material to
     the consolidated financial statements and is, therefore, not presented
     separately.

     The taxing authorities in the U.K. have questioned the appropriateness
     of certain income tax deductions taken by Aplin & Barrett for the
     fiscal year ended June 30, 1993 relative to payments made by Aplin &
     Barrett to Applied Microbiology, Inc.  The deductions aggregate GBP
     2,601,000 for fiscal 1993, and are GBP 2,683,000 for fiscal 1994. 
     Aplin & Barrett believes that these deductions are appropriate.  If the
     taxing authorities ultimately deny these deductions, Aplin & Barrett,
     based on advice of outside counsel, believes that it is more likely
     than not that its position will be upheld upon appeal.  The tax effect
     of the potential disallowance of these deductions has not been
     reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

     Income tax expense attributed to pre-tax income differed from the
     amounts computed by applying the US federal statutory tax rate to pre-
     tax income as a result of the following:

                                  1994      1993       1992

    United States federal income tax purposes of approximately GBP 3,875,000
    which are available to offset future United States federal taxable
    income, if any, through 2007.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

    In July 1991, the Company entered into an exclusive license agreement
    whereby the Company received a license, with the right to sublicense,
    the use of a deodorant formulation.  In exchange, the Company has agreed
    to pay royalties (as defined).  Through June 30, 1994, the Company has
    not earned any revenue from these licenses.

    The Company has entered into various research and license agreements
    with certain universities to supplement the Company's research
    activities and to obtain for the Company rights to certain technology. 
    The agreements generally require the Company to fund the research and
    to pay royalties based upon percentage of product sales.

    The Company has consulting agreements with several of its Scientific
    Advisory Board members and other consultants.  These agreements
    generally are for a term of one year and are terminable at the Company's
    option.

    Under an operating lease, Aplin & Barrett Limited leases its offices in
    the U.K.  The lease expires in September 2013.  Payments under this
    lease were GBP 33,000 in 1994, GBP 29,000 in 1993 and 1992.  Future
    noncancellable minimum payments under this lease are as follows:

    In September 1994 the Company terminated a lease which provided for
    aggregate rental payments of $840,000 over a five-year period.  The
    Company and the landlord under the lease are engaged in a dispute as to
    whether the Company was entitled to terminate the lease and whether the
    landlord is entitled to recover damages on account of the termination. 
    The Company anticipates that the landlord will institute an action
    against the Company to enforce its claim.  The Company cannot predict
    the outcome of the dispute at this early stage, and it has not yet
    engaged litigation counsel.  The Company intends to contest vigorously
    any action by the landlord, and the Company does not at this time expect
    that the resolution of the dispute will have a materially adverse effect
    on the Company's consolidated financial position.

14.  PENSION BENEFITS


     i)   Applied Microbiology, Inc. participates in a defined benefit
          pension plan of Burns Philp Inc., an affiliated company, and the
          plan is called the 'Burns Philp Inc. Retirement Plan for Non-
          Bargaining Unit Employees'.  This plan provides retirement
          benefits based upon years of service, or a combination of
          employee compensation and years of service.

          Contributions payable to the plan in the year ended June 30, 1994
          were approximately GBP 7,400.  There were no contributions to the
          plan in prior years.


     ii)  Aplin & Barrett Limited participates in a defined benefit pension
          plan of Burns Philp (U.K.) plc, an affiliated company called 'The
          Burns Philp (U.K.) plc Pension Plan'.  The plan provides a

          pension of one sixtieth of final pensionable earnings for each
          year of service at a normal retirement age of 65.  Pensionable
          earnings is basic salary less the basic UK state pension.  On
          death in service, a lump sum benefit of three times basic salary
          is paid.  In addition, on death at any time, a spouse's pension
          of one-half of the pension (or prospective pension) becomes
          payable.  There is a special category of membership, which is
          closed to new entrants, which provides a cash sum based on final
          salary and length of service at retirement.


          Employee Groups covered

          Permanent UK employees who have completed six months service.


          Funding policy

          That the assets should be at least equal to the present value of
          obligations in respect of service to the valuation date taking
          account of the projected final earnings of active members.


          Types of assets held

          The investments comprise Managed Fund Units, and since October 1
          1991, have been managed by Pensions Management (SWF) Limited.
