D.   During the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995, the Company's Board of Director's
     approved a restructuring plan to explore various alternatives relating to
     occupancy cost reductions at the corporate headquarters in Rockville, MD
     which resulted in a $450,000 charge against earnings.  The Company is
     currently exploring options related to reducing occupancy costs at its
     corporate office facility in Rockville, Maryland.

     As part of this plan, the Company initiated certain organizational    
     changes during the first quarter of fiscal 1996 resulting in additional    
     charges of $94,000 related to employee severance payments in fiscal 1996.
     The following table sets forth the Company's restructuring reserve as of
     January 31, 1996:

E.   STI entered into a loan agreement with the CIT Group/Equipment   Financing,
     Inc. ("CIT") in May 1995. This arrangement consists of a series of 
     loans for the acquisition of production molds, high speed component 
     preparation and filling equipment and facility renovations not to 
     exceed a maximum aggregate of $3 million. During the current quarter, 
     STI received proceeds ($445,300) from CIT for a second loan within the 
     series of loans. Loan proceeds to date totalled $1.5 million of which 
     $1.3 million was outstanding at January 31, 1996, at interest rates of 
     9.2% and 7.9%.

                     FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JANUARY 31, 1996

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

THE QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS IN REVIEW 
 
The Company reported net income of $381,400 ($.12 per share) on sales of $8.6
million for the second quarter of fiscal 1996 compared with net income of
$24,000 ($.01 per share) on sales of $6.5 million in the same period of fiscal
1995.  Net income for the six months ended January 31, 1996 totalled $525,900
($.17 per share) on sales of $13.9 million compared with net income of $49,000
($.02 per share) on sales of $11.4 million during the six-month period ended
January 31, 1995.  Revenues increased $2.1 million (33%) during the current
quarter and $2.5 million (22%) during the first six months of fiscal 1996 on the
strength of higher U.S. military product and EpiPen-Registered Trademark- auto-
injector sales. 

Military product sales increased $2.2 million (63%) to $5.7 million in the
second quarter and $2.8 million (57%) to $7.8 million in the first half of
fiscal 1996 when compared with the corresponding prior year periods.  These
increases were due to shipments of military auto-injectors during the current
quarter coupled with additional services provided as part of the Industrial Base
Maintenance Contract with the U.S. Department of Defense ("DoD").  Revenues
under this DoD contract more than doubled to $5.6 million for the quarter and
$7.5 million for the six months ended January 31, 1996 when compared with the
same periods last year.  Product deliveries included the Diazepam auto-injector
which was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") in December
1995.  Revenues for this new injector were $650,800 in the current quarter with
third and fourth quarter deliveries expected to generate over $2 million in
additional sales.  Additional services provided to the DoD included the pre-
stocking of critical components at STI's St. Louis manufacturing facility to
enhance readiness and mobilization capability.  STI's intensified efforts to
expand sales of its military products into international markets has resulted in
orders from new customers that are expected to generate approximately $1 million
in sales over the second half of fiscal 1996.

Commercial products and services generated revenues of $2.8 million and
$6 million for the quarter and six months ended January 31, 1996.  This
represents decreases of $97,300 (3%) in the current quarter and $420,500 (7%) in
the first six months of fiscal 1996 when compared with the same periods in
fiscal 1995.  Lower commercial revenues for the first half of fiscal 1996 were
primarily due to the anticipated absence in CytoGuard-Registered Trademark-
sales of $787,500 coupled with lower sales ($430,800) from other contract
manufacturing activities.  These sales declines were partially offset by a
$727,700 (18%) increase in revenues from STI's EpiPen auto-injector sales to
$4.7 million for the six months ended January 31, 1996.  The EpiPen contains
epinephrine and is indicated for self-injection by persons who are at risk for
severe allergic reactions to bee stings, insect bites, and ingestion of certain
foods.  The sales increase is primarily attributable to expanded promotional
efforts over the last several years by Center Laboratories, Inc. ("Center"),
STI's exclusive distributor of the EpiPen.  The Company anticipates EpiPen sales
to continue improving over prior year levels with Center's continuing expansion
of marketing efforts in the U.S. and international markets coupled with the
launch of STI's second new product, the Epi E-Z Pen-TM-, during the third
quarter of fiscal 1996.

The Company continues to work with a number of pharmaceutical and biotechnology
companies to formulate their drugs for use in STI's proprietary drug delivery
systems.  STI entered into two new development contracts this year which have
generated revenues of $436,200 during the current quarter and are primarily
responsible for the 31% increase in R&D revenues when compared to the same
quarter last year.  R&D sales for the first six months of fiscal 1996 was $1.2
million which represents an increase of $102,400 (10%) over the same prior year
period.  The Company expects to complete both contracts during fiscal 1996 with
revenue aggregating $1 million.  Upon the successful

completion of these development activities, the Company anticipates signing 
follow-on development and supply agreements for these products as early as
fiscal 1997.

Gross margins remained relatively constant at 28% for the quarter and 30% for
the six months ended January 31, 1996 compared to 28% for the quarter and 31%
for the six months ended January 31, 1995.  The Company is working to improve
gross margins through new product introductions along with the completion of
several manufacturing cost reduction programs currently in progress.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $128,700 (12%) in the
current quarter and $326,500 (16%) in the first half of fiscal 1996 when
compared with the same prior year periods.  This resulted from the absence of
certain administrative costs related to organizational changes and lower bad
debt expense.  The Company's previously reported restructuring plan (discussed
below) is expected to further reduce administrative costs in the future.

Research and development expenditures decreased $61,400 (25%) and $182,400 (34%)
in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 1996 when compared with the same
periods in fiscal 1995.  This was due to the timing of expenditures related to
certain projects which may be deferred beyond the current year and would result
in lower R&D expenses in fiscal 1996 when compared to fiscal 1995.

Depreciation and amortization increased $124,100 (36%) and $162,700 (22%) for
the quarter and six months ended January 31, 1996 when compared with the same
periods in fiscal 1995.  As previously reported, these increases were
anticipated due to significant levels of capital expenditures made over the last
two fiscal years to automate manufacturing processes to increase efficiency and
enhance capacity.

As part of the restructuring plan adopted in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995,
the Company initiated certain organizational changes during the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 resulting in additional charges of $94,000 related to employee
severance payments in fiscal 1996.  See Note D in Notes to Consolidated
Condensed Financial Statements.  The Company is continuing to explore options
related to reducing occupancy costs at its corporate office facility in
Rockville, Maryland.

Other expense increased $98,400 in the second quarter and $119,200 for the first
six months of fiscal 1996 when compared with the same periods in fiscal 1995. 
These increases were primarily the result of higher interest expense due to
higher levels of bank borrowings necessary to fund inventory purchases in
support of higher sales levels and to fund continuing capital investment
programs.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES 

The Company has a $5 million line of credit agreement ("Agreement") with Merrill
Lynch Business Financial Services Inc. ("MLBFS") through  September 1996. 
Outstanding borrowings under the Agreement totalled $3 million at January 31,
1996.  The Agreement places a $5 million limit on capital expenditures in any
one fiscal year which have aggregated $1 million for the six months ended
January 31, 1996.  The Company relies on its line of credit facility to satisfy
its working capital and capital expenditure requirements. 

The Company has a Loan Agreement pursuant to which Syntex Laboratories, Inc.
agreed to lend STI $5.4 million to finance working capital requirements and
capital expenditures designed to increase the production capacity of the
Company's Cartrix syringe system.  The outstanding loan balance bears interest
at the same rate of interest the Company pays on its current commercial line of
credit facility.  Principal payments continued for the calendar quarter

ended December 31, 1995 at the minimum of $200,000 per quarter ($400,000)
through the first six months of fiscal 1996) reducing the outstanding loan
balance to less than $1 million ($988,400) at January 31, 1996.  The loan is
subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of certain events.

To assist the Company's previously reported capital investment program, STI
entered into a loan agreement with the CIT Group/Equipment Financing, Inc.
("CIT") in May 1995.  This arrangement consists of a series of loans for the
acquisition of production molds, high speed component preparation and filling
equipment and facility renovations not to exceed a maximum aggregate of
$3 million.  During the current quarter, STI received proceeds ($445,300) from
CIT for a second loan under this credit facility. Loan proceeds to date totalled
$1.5 million of which $1.3 million was outstanding at January 31, 1996, at
interest rates of 9.2% and 7.9%.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW 
        
Working capital increased $456,300 (12%) to $4,124,600 at January 31, 1996 from
$3,668,300 at July 31, 1995.  The primary factor contributing to this favorable
change in working capital was an $881,800 (15%) increase in receivables due to
higher sales during the current quarter.  Inventory levels increased $847,300
(22%) in support of higher sales levels anticipated for the third and early
fourth quarters of the current fiscal year which will include new product
introductions for the Epi E-Z Pen and the Diazepam auto-injectors.  Prepaid
expenses and other current assets increased $140,300 (42%) primarily resulting
from the prepayment to the FDA for annual user fees.  The deferred income tax
asset remained constant at $1,030,900.

Note payable to bank decreased $959,500 (24%) and note payable to Syntex
decreased $400,000 (29%).  Proceeds from operations during the first six months
enabled the Company to reduce short-term borrowing levels.  Scheduled quarterly
payments were made to Syntex as discussed above under "Liquidity and Capital
Resources".  Other long-term debt, including the current portion, increased
$159,900 (10%).  This resulted from additional borrowings under the CIT loan
agreement which was partially offset by payments STI made on current outstanding
CIT loans (see "Liquidity and Capital Resources") and its capital lease
obligations.  Accounts payable increased $1.5 million (150%) in conjunction with
higher inventory purchases discussed above which included the acquisition of
components for the DoD pre-stocking program.  Other liabilities and accrued
expenses increased $417,700 (35%) due in part to an accrual for income taxes
payable while the restructuring reserve increased $42,800 (10%), net of employee
severance payments associated with the previously discussed organizational
changes.  Deferred revenue increased $125,000 (50%) due to proceeds ($375,000)
from Center partially offset by recognition of the remaining revenue ($250,000)
of a development contract closed-out during the first quarter.  The Company
received an advance from Center in the amount of $375,000 to assist in the
capital investment program associated with the Epi E-Z Pen.  This will be paid
back to Center through credits on future product deliveries commencing in
September 1996.

Capital expenditures totalled $992,800 during the first half of fiscal 1996
which consisted primarily of improvements designed to automate and validate
current production processes at the Company's St. Louis manufacturing facility. 
The timing of capital expenditures to keep pace with prior year levels is
contingent on the Company's ability to identify outside sources of capital. 
Shareholder's equity increased $536,700 (3%) on the strength of net income for
the six months ended January 31, 1996.
