ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS


During the course of the meeting of the Board of Directors on July 31, 1997, it
was determined that the Company will be unable to recover from the recent bans
imposed by Japan and Italy on certain of the Company's processed tissue,
without an additional infusion of capital in excess of its existing lines of
credit. Failure to secure additional capital will have a materially adverse
effect on the Company which could result in a curtailment of operations prior
to the end of August 1997.

Management has been actively seeking the cooperation of its institutional
investors in providing the required capital and in converting existing debt to
equity. Agreements have been secured to convert a portion of debt to equity,
and discussions related to the conversion of the balance of debt and an
infusion of capital are continuing.

While management will continue to pursue the additional funding, there can be
no assurances that such funding can be secured on a timely basis. An infusion
of additional capital and conversion of existing debt to equity is likely to
result in significant dilution to existing shareholders.

================================================================================

PARSIPPANY, NEW JERSEY - (August 5, 1997) - BDNY announced today that during
the course of the meeting of the Board of Directors on July 31, 1997, it was
determined that the Company will be unable to recover from the recent bans
imposed by Japan and Italy on certain of the Company's processed tissue,
without an additional infusion of capital in excess of its existing lines of
credit. Failure to secure additional capital will have a materially adverse
effect on the Company which could result in a curtailment of operations prior
to the end of August 1997.

Management has been actively seeking the cooperation of its institutional
investors in providing the required capital in converting existing debt to
equity. Agreements have been secured to convert a portion of debt to equity,
and discussions related to the conversion of the balance of debt and an
infusion of capital are continuing.

While management will continue to pursue the additional funding, there can be
no assurances that such funding can be secured on a timely basis. An infusion
of additional capital and conversion of existing debt to equity is likely to
result in significant dilution to existing shareholders.
