Item 5.  Other Events.

     On June 26, 2000, the Company extended the expiration date of its publicly
traded Class B warrants from June 30, 2000 to September 28, 2000. Such action
was taken by the Company's Board of Directors. There are 1,188,600 Class B
Warrants outstanding. Each Class B warrant entitles the holder to purchase one
share of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $15 per share. The
closing price for the Company's Common Stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market on
July 3, 2000 was $9.25. The original expiration date of the Class B Warrants was
January 18, 1999, but such expiration date was extended by the Company's Board
of Directors on five occasions before the action taken on June 26, 2000.

     Statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K which express the "belief",
"anticipation" or "expectation", as well as other statements which are not
historical fact, and statements as to future exercise of warrants insofar as
they may apply prospectively, are forward-looking statements within the meaning
and pursuant to the Safe Harbor provisions of the Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995 and involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ
significantly from the results discussed in this Current Report on Form 8-K or
in other forward-looking statements presented by management. Factors that might
cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, development by the
Company's competitors of new technologies or products that are more effective
than the Company's, risks of failure of clinical trials, dependence on and
retention of key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, compliance
with U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations, continued availability of
raw material for the Company's products, availability of product liability
insurance in the event of commercialization of the Company's products, ability
to effect transition from pilot-scale manufacturing to large-scale commercial
production of products, uncertainty as to the availability of additional capital
on acceptable terms, if at all, and the demand for the Company's products, if
and when commercially available.
