considered  necessary  for  a fair  presentation  have  been
included.   For further information, refer to the  financial
statements  and  footnotes included in the Company's  annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September  30,
1997.

NOTE B - Organization

      The  Company  was incorporated on July 5,  1989  as  a
wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  Biocontrol  Technology,  Inc.
(BICO).   BICO  owns 52% of the stock of the Company  as  of
December   31,  1997.   Diasense is currently  developing  a
noninvasive glucose sensor (Sensor).  The sensor  would  use
electromagnetic   technology  to   measure   blood   without
requiring the user to take a blood sample.

NOTE C - Net Loss Per Common Share

      Net  loss  per common share is based on  the  weighted
average  number of outstanding common shares which  amounted
to  22,979,150 and 22,974,349 for the periods ended December
31,  1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively. The loss  per
share  does not include common stock equivalents  since  the
effect would be anti-dilutive.

          From July 5, 1989 (inception) to December 31, 1997,
net  loss  per common share is based on the weighted  average
number  of common shares outstanding and the number of common
shares  issuable on the exercise of 1,708,000 warrants issued
in  1992; reduced by 488,000 common shares that were  assumed
to have been purchased with the proceeds from the exercise of
the  warrants  at an assumed price of $3.50 per  share.   The
inclusion  of the warrants in the loss per share  calculation
is  required  by  the  rules of the Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  relative  to  the initial registration  statement
which included the Company's financial statements through the
period  ended  March  31,  1993.  The registration  statement
became  effective July 19, 1993.  The weighted average number
of  common  shares including the effect of the conversion  of
the  warrants amounted to 18,170,753 for the period from July
5, 1989 (inception) to December 31, 1997.

   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued


NOTE D - Stockholders' Equity

      During  the three months ended December 31, 1997,  the
company  sold 1,000 shares of its common stock  pursuant  to
its registration statement dated July 19, 1993 as amended.

       In  addition,  the exercise date was  extended  on  a
warrant  to  purchase 10,000 shares of  common  stock  to  a
former consultant.  The warrant was originally granted at an
exercise  price of $1.00 per share and extended at the  same
price.   The  fair  market  value  of  the  stock  when  the
extension  was granted was $3.50.  Diasense Inc. recorded  a
$25,000  expense for the difference between the fair  market
value and the warrant price times the number of shares.
                              
                              
 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
                       and Cash Flows


Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Cash  decreased from $1,871,070 at September 30, 1997,
to  $1,087,606  at  December 31, 1997.   This  decrease  was
primarily  attributable to the Company's $138,425  net  cash
flow used by operations and $521,981 net advances to BICO.

Results of Operations

           There  were no research and development  expenses
during  the three month period ended December 31,  1997  and
1996  due  to  the  agreed-upon suspension  of  billings  by
Diasense  and BICO pursuant to the Research and  Development
Agreement.

      General  and Administrative expenses decreased  during
the  first quarter from $316,726 for the three month  period
ended  December  31, 1996 to $168,212 for  the  three  month
period  ended December 31, 1997.  The decrease was primarily
due to reductions in administrative overhead.

      Other  income during the first quarter increased  from
$16,325  for the three month period ended December 31,  1996
to  $21,783  for the three month period ended  December  31,
1997.   This  increase was due to the Company having  higher
cash  reserves to invest for the period ending December  31,
1997 than during the period ending December 31, 1996.
