1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

         The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary to a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods
presented.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a
full year.

         The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report
on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1994.

2.       NET INCOME PER SHARE:

         The Company uses the modified treasury stock method of computing
earnings per share.  Under generally accepted accounting principles, there is a
computational difference between the treasury stock method and the modified
treasury stock method which is based on the number of shares obtainable upon
the exercise of options and warrants.  If the number of Common Stock obtainable
upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants exceeds 20% of the number
of Common Stock outstanding at the end of the period, the modified treasury
stock method is used.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994,
computations under the modified treasury stock method have been excluded as the
net aggregate effect is anti-dilutive.

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

GENERAL

         The Company designs, manufactures and markets automated continuous
monitoring instruments used to detect and measure various types of air
pollution through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dasibi Environmental Corp.  The
Company currently derives essentially all of its revenue from sales of its
instruments and their replacement parts.

         The Company's future operating results may be affected by a number of
factors, including:  uncertainties relative to global economic conditions;
industry factors; the availability and cost of components; the Company's
ability to develop, manufacture and sell its products profitably; the Company's
ability to successfully increase its market share in its core business while
expanding its product base into other markets; the strength of its distribution
channels; and the Company's ability to effectively manage expense growth
relative to revenue growth in anticipation of continued competitive price
pressure on gross margins as a percentage of net sales.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 VS. NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1994

         Net revenues increased 15% from $3,648,270 during the nine-month
period ended September 30, 1994 to $4,279,630 during the nine-month period
ended September 30, 1995, primarily due to increased job awards resulting from
the Company's program to lower prices in response to competition.

         Cost of sales increased 12% from $2,297,661 during the nine-month
period ended September 30, 1994, to $2,614,674 during the nine-month period
ended September 30, 1995, primarily due to the increase in sales discussed
above.  The Company's gross profit margin on its instruments remained stable on
an period-to-period basis.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 1%, from
$1,384,294 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 1994 to $1,404,970
in the nine-month period ended September 30, 1995, primarily due to an increase
in fixed expenses resulting from the Company's new manufacturing facility,
which were not completely offset by reduced legal fees.

         As a result of the foregoing factors, net income increased $307,502
from a net loss of $234,750 during the nine-month period ended September 30,
1994 to a net income of $72,752 during the nine-month period ended September
30, 1995.

                                                              September 30, 1995

                      POLLUTION RESEARCH AND CONTROL CORP.


THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 VS. THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1994

         Net revenues increased 51% from $913,440 during the three-month period
ended September 30, 1994 to $1,376,286 during the three-month period ended
September 30, 1995, because the Company was able to adjust prices to
successfully meet competitive price pressures and increase its job-awards.

         Cost of sales increased 37% from $653,660 during the three-month
period ended September 30, 1994, to $895,057 during the three-month period
ended September 30, 1995, primarily as a result of the higher level of sales
discussed above.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately
1%, from $486,035 during the three-month period ended September 30, 1994 to
$493,720 during the three-month period ended September 30, 1995, primarily due
to an increase in fixed expenses resulting from the Company's new manufacturing
facility, which were not completely offset by the reduced legal fees.

         As a result of the foregoing factors, net income increased $205,742
from a net loss of $288,500 during the three-month period ended September 30,
1994, to a net loss of $82,758 during the three-month period ended September
30, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.

         The Company has historically financed its growth and cash needs
primarily through borrowings, and the public and private sales of its
securities.

         In June 1995, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a bank,
which provides for an unsecured line of credit up to $100,000 through June 1,
1996.  As of September 30, 1995, the Company had borrowed $95,000 under this
agreement. The line was increased to $200,000 in October 1995.

         Working capital increased from $2,285,000 at December 31, 1994 to 
$2,299,310 at September 30, 1995.

         The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures as of
September 30, 1995.  The Company believes it will be able to meet its current
obligations with funds generated from its own operations.

INFLATION

         The Company believes that inflation has not had a material impact on
its business.

SEASONALITY

         The Company does not believe that its business is seasonal.

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

         In July 1995 the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with
         Logan Medical Research Ltd. ("Logan") to manufacture Logan's nitric
         oxide monitor for U.S. Applications.  A condition of the agreement was
         funding from any source for Logan, which is a start-up company.  The
         Company agreed to fund Logan with working capital in exchange for a
         world-wide manufacturing agreement.  The funding consists of $175,000
         cash, a commitment for $200,000 in instrument inventory and 200,000
         shares of the Atlanta Technology common stock owned by the Company.

         balance sheet at no value.  Funding of $100,000 was advanced prior to
         September 30, 1995.  In exchange for its contributions the Company
