PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations.

Results of Operations

Revenues were $9.7 million and $18.1 million for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1996, respectively, compared to $7.2 million and $13.8
million for the corresponding periods in 1995. Revenues increased 35% and
31% for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, respectively, compared
to the corresponding periods in 1995. Revenue increases are due to
greater allograft shipments resulting from increased demand.

Revenues from human heart valve preservation increased 32% to $6.6 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1996 from $5.0 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1995, representing 68% and 69% of total revenues,
respectively. For the six months ended June 30, revenues from human
heart valve preservation increased 27% to $12.1 million for 1996 from $9.5
million for 1995, representing 67% and 69% of total revenue, respectively.
Second quarter revenues increased due to a 34% increase in tissue shipments
resulting from an increase in demand in the second quarter of 1996 compared
to the second quarter of 1995. Six month revenues increased due to a 31%
increase in tissue shipments resulting from an increase in demand in the
first half of 1996 compared to 1995.

Revenues from vein preservation increased 24% to $2.1 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1996 from $1.7 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1995, representing 22% and 24% of total revenues, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, revenues from vein preservation
increased 18% to $3.9 million for 1996 from $3.3 million for 1995,
representing 21% and 24% of total revenue, respectively. Second quarter
revenues increased due to a 27% increase in tissue shipments resulting from
an increase in demand in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the second
quarter of 1995. Six month revenues increased due to a 16% increase in
tissue shipments resulting from an increase in demand in the first half of
1996 compared to 1995.

Revenues from orthopaedic tissue preservation increased 150% to $896,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1996 from $359,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1995, representing 9% and 5% of total revenues, respectively. For
the six months ended June 30, revenues from orthopaedic tissue preservation
increased 159% to $1.7 million for 1996 from $638,000 for 1995, representing
9% and 5% of total revenue, respectively. Second quarter revenues increased
due to a 231% increase in tissue shipments resulting from an increase in
demand in the second quarter of 1996 compared to the second quarter of 1995.
Six month revenues increased due to a 241% increase in tissue shipments
resulting from an increase in demand in the first half of 1996 compared to
1995.

Other revenues were $77,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 compared
to $125,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1995, representing 1% and 2%
of total revenues, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, other
revenues were $253,000 for 1996 compared to $265,000 for 1995, representing
1% and 2% of total revenue, respectively. Other revenues consist primarily
of research grant award revenues and interest income. Research grant award
revenues in 1996 are primarily related to the bioadhesive and synergraft
projects.

Preservation costs aggregated $3.3 million and $6.2 million, respectively,
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, representing 34% of total
revenues for both periods, compared to $2.7 million and $5.1 million,
respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995,
representing 38% and 37% of total revenues, respectively. Preservation
costs increased 22% for second quarter 1996 compared to second quarter 1995
and increased 22% for the first half of 1996 compared to the first half of
1995 due to increased shipments of human allografts.

General, administrative, and marketing expenses aggregated $4.2 million and
$7.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
representing 43% of total revenues for both periods, compared to $3.0 million
and $6.0 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1995, representing 42% and 43% of total revenues, respectively.
This increase reflects the general overhead growth trends, including
increased marketing expensesassociated with the increase in revenues and the
switch from a predominantly independent sales force to a predominantly direct
sales force.

Research and development expenses aggregated $700,000 and $1.4 million,
respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, representing 7%
and 8% of total revenues, respectively,
compared to $668,000 and $1.4 million, respectively, for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1995, representing 9% and 10% of total revenues,
respectively. R & D spending relates principally to the Company's focus on
bioadhesives and the synergraft technology.

Seasonality

The demand for the Company's human heart valve tissue preservation services
is seasonal. Management believes this demand trend for human heart valves is
primarily due to the high number of pediatric surgeries scheduled during the
summer months.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 1996 net working capital was $15.3 million, compared to
$15.2 million at December 31, 1995, with a current ratio of 4.8 to 1.
Shareholders' equity at June 30, 1996 was $22.5 million. The Company's
primary capital requirements arise out of working capital needs, including
receivables and deferred preservation costs, and capital expenditures for
facilities and equipment, primarily the new corporate headquarters.
The increase in receivables relates to the increase in revenue. The
increase in prepaid expenses relates primarily to prepaid lab supplies for
the bioadhesives facility. The increase in other assets relates primarily to
the purchase of the Bioglue technology. The increase in accounts payable and
accrued expenses is due to increased procurement fees pursuant to an increase
in tissue procured, and the increase in overhead to support the increased
revenues. Other long term liabilities relate to the acquisition of the
Bioglue technology. Fixed asset additions of $1.8 million during the first
half of 1996 related principally to the construction of the new corporate
headquarters.

The Company believes that available cash, cash equivalents, and marketable
securities, along with cash generated from operations, will be sufficient
to meet its operating and development needs for the foreseeable future.
