ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

         On September 11, 1996, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement
for Real Property and Escrow Instructions dated as of September 11, 1996 with
TR KOLL TUSTIN TECH CORP. ("Koll"). Under the terms of the agreement, the
Company agreed to purchase from Koll land and a building located at 14272
Franklin Avenue, Tustin, California 92780 for the purchase price of $1,524,663.
This 24,201 square foot building is adjacent to the Company's existing building
which was purchased in April 1996. The building to be purchased is partially
occupied by tenants under the terms of leasing arrangements and the balance of
the building, consisting of approximately 5,000 square feet, will be occupied by
the Company over the next six months to support expanded in-house research and
development operations. The Company retains the option to terminate the tenant
leases at the end of a two year period if needed to expand its antibody
production capabilities. The Company expects to make a down payment of
approximately $500,000 towards the building purchase and to finance the balance
under the terms of a mortgage loan currently being negotiated. The closing of
the transaction is expected to take place on or before October 15, 1996.
