                      Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   STATEMENT OF INFORMATION FURNISHED

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary
to present fairly the financial position of SeraCare, Inc. and Subsidiaries as
of August 31, 1997, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the
three and six month periods ended August 31, 1997 and 1996.  These results have
been determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles and
practices applied consistently with those used in the preparation of the audited
financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for
the fiscal year ended February 28, 1997.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended August 31,
1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other
period or for the entire current fiscal year.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted in accordance with the rules to Form 10-QSB.  The
accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the

average number of shares actually outstanding during the period.  Common stock
options and purchase warrants, which are considered common stock equivalents,
have not been considered in the average number of common shares outstanding for
the three month period ending  August 31, 1997 as their inclusion would be
anti-dilutive.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Except for historical information contained herein, the statements in this
report (including without limitation, statements indicating that the Company
"expects," "estimates," "anticipates," or "believes" and all other statements
concerning future financial results, product offerings or other events that have
not yet occurred) are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  Forward-looking statements involve
known and unknown factors, risks and uncertainties which may cause the Company's
actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results.
Those factors, risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the
positioning of the Company's products in the Company's market segment; the
Company's ability to effectively manage its various businesses in a rapidly
changing environment; new competition for donors and customers; the inability of
the Company to obtain FDA approval of newly established centers; and the
introduction of synthetic products which could eliminate the need for plasma
products.

OVERVIEW AND RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

The Company emerged from Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code on February
6, 1996 as a plasma collection company which operated six plasma collection
centers collecting source plasma at the rate of about 120,000 liters annually.
In July 1996, the Company acquired the assets of  Silver State Plasma in Las
Vegas, Nevada and BHM Labs, Inc. in Ft. Smith, Arkansas. In September 1996, the
Company acquired the rights to plasma centers in Clearfield, Utah and Raleigh,
North Carolina, both of which where opened for business in November 1996 under
reference numbers from the FDA.  The Company also opened a new center in Macon,
Georgia in November 1996 under a reference number from the FDA.  In April and
May of 1997, the Company opened centers in Pasco, Washington and Toledo, Ohio
respectively under reference numbers from the FDA.  Final FDA approval was
received in May 1997 for Clearfield, Utah, and is still pending for the
remaining locations.

On July 21, 1997, the Company announced an agreement to become one of the major
suppliers to Grupo Grifols, S.A. of Barcelona, Spain.  Also occurring in July
1997, was the early cancellation of certain contracts with Alpha Therapeutic
Corporation and the rescheduling of such centers to supply the Grupo Grifols
requirements.  Initially, shipments were planned to begin in the late September
to early October time-frame.  This time-frame has been delayed to late November
or early December due to delays in the import license process.  Such delay will
have an adverse short-term affect on both sales and cash flow.  Management
expects that product not shipped currently due to the delays will be shipped
with future production when the import license is obtained.  Accordingly, no
long-term adverse affects to sales or cash flow are expected.

Effective August 13, 1997, the Company completed an asset exchange with
Serologicals Corporation whereby the Company received two plasma collection
centers located in Reno, Nevada and Ft. Smith, Arkansas plus two hundred fifty
thousand dollars.  In exchange, the
<PAGE>

Company delivered three plasma collection centers, two of which are located in
Colorado Springs, Colorado and the other located in Pueblo, Colorado.  While
this transaction was deemed strategically beneficial for both the Company and
Serologicals from a management control standpoint, this exchange did not have a
material impact on the volumes of plasma collected by either company.

In September 1997, the Company announced the signing of letters of intent to
acquire the stock of Western States Group, Inc. located in Fallbrook,
California, and; the assets of Consolidated Technologies, Inc. and an affiliate,
located in Austin, Texas.  These acquisitions are subject to several conditions,
including a definitive agreement between the parties, obtaining financing and
approval of the respective boards of directors.  Also in September, the Company
opened a new plasma collection center in Pocatello, Idaho.

The Company is subject to regulation by the FDA and various other organizations
including the American Blood Resources Association ("ABRA"), and the Company's
customers.  Such regulators are continually evaluating existing practices and
procedures in relation to new information or public concerns over blood products
such as plasma.  Most recently, ABRA established a voluntary standard effective
July 1, 1997 which relates to the acceptance of new donors.  Accordingly, all
first-time donor plasma is precluded from further manufacturing into therapeutic
products until a negative set of test results is obtained on a second donation
from the same donor within six months.  This is intended to further minimize the
possibility of infected plasma interring the therapeutic products manufacturing
process cycle.  Although the Company does not believe that this new standard
will have a significant impact on the volume of plasma shipped to its customers,
there can be no assurances as to the long-term impact or that other measures may
be  imposed upon the Company in the future which may have an adverse effect on
future operations.

                                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


   THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1997 AS COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED 
AUGUST 31, 1996

SALES

Net sales of the Company increased by 52%, or $655,743 to  $1,920,512 during the
1997 period. Of the increase,  about $408,234 was attributable to final FDA
approval of the Clearfield, Utah location which allowed the company to sell the
plasma which had been collected since it opened in November 1996.   In addition,
about $287,744 was the result of increased plasma collections at the Company's
Las Vegas plasma collection center and increased sales of hyperimmune plasma.
The Company collected about 43,921 liters of plasma during the three month
period ended August 31, 1997 compared to about 36,891 for the comparable prior
year period or an increase of about nineteen percent.  The increased volumes
were the result of the acquisitions of Silver State and BHM and the newly
established centers in: Clearfield, Utah; Raleigh, North Carolina; Macon,
Georgia; Pasco, Washington; and Toledo, Ohio.  With the exception of Clearfield,
which received final FDA approval in May 1997, the other newly established
centers were operating under Reference Number's from the FDA during the period
and were thus not allowed to sell or ship plasma, although they were collecting
plasma during the period.
<PAGE>

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit increased by $97,199 or 58 percent in the 1997 period  to $265,375
primarily due to increased volumes of hyperimmune plasma, partially offset by
higher donor fees, higher salaries and other operating costs resulting from
higher volumes and increased competition in certain locations.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses in 1997 were higher by $102,990 or 72
percent due mainly to the higher legal  fees resulting from various
administrative matters.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense was  $62,214 in the 1997 period compared to $51,003 for the
comparable 1996 period primarily due to the increase in bridge loans in the 1997
period, partially offset by a decrease in long-term debt.

INCOME TAXES

As of August 31, 1997,  the tax effects of temporary differences for
depreciation, amortization, and valuation allowances from current and prior
periods and net operating loss carryforwards could give rise to the recording of
deferred tax assets.  The Company is unable to reasonably determine the amounts
of net operating loss carryforwards available to offset against future taxable
income.  Furthermore, the Company was unable to determine whether it was more
likely than not that the deferred tax asset would be realized, therefore a 100%
valuation allowance was established.

NET INCOME

As a result of the above, there was a net loss for the three months ended August
31, 1997 of $43,432 compared to a net loss of $468 in the 1996 period.

SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1997 AS COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31,
1996

SALES

Net sales of the Company increased by 26%, or $728,070  to  $3,506,365 during
the 1997 period. Of the increase, about $408,234 was attributable to final FDA
approval of the Clearfield, Utah location which allowed the company to sell the
plasma which had been collected since it opened in November 1996.   In addition,
about $299,567 was the result of increased plasma collections at the Company's
Las Vegas plasma collection center and increased sales of hyperimmune plasma.
The Company collected about 83,797 liters of plasma during the six month period
ended August 31, 1997 compared to about 66,595 for the comparable prior year
period or an increase of about twenty-six percent.  The increased volumes were
the result of the acquisitions of Silver State and BHM and the newly established
centers in: Clearfield, Utah; Raleigh, North Carolina; Macon, Georgia; Pasco,
Washington; and Toledo, Ohio.  With the exception of Clearfield, which received
final FDA approval in May 1997, the other newly established centers were
operating under Reference Number's from the FDA during the period and were thus
not allowed to sell or ship plasma, although they were collecting plasma during
the period.
<PAGE>

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit increased by $146,219 or 53 percent in the 1997 period  to $423,742
primarily due to increased volumes of hyperimmune plasma, partially offset by
higher donor fees, higher salaries and other operating costs resulting from
higher volumes and increased competition in certain locations.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

General and administrative expenses in 1997 were higher by $229,331 or 78
percent due mainly to the higher legal and professional fees, increased travel
expenses and higher administrative salaries.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense was  $110,828 in the 1997 period compared to $91,144 for the
comparable 1996 period primarily due to the increase in bridge loans in the 1997
period, partially offset by a decrease in long-term debt.

INCOME TAXES

As of August 31, 1997,  the tax effects of temporary differences for
depreciation, amortization, and valuation allowances from current and prior
periods and net operating loss carryforwards could give rise to the recording of
deferred tax assets.  The Company is unable to reasonably determine the amounts
of net operating loss carryforwards available to offset against future taxable
income.  Furthermore, the Company was unable to determine whether it was more
likely than not that the deferred tax asset would be realized, therefore a 100%
valuation allowance was established.

NET INCOME

As a result of the above, there was a net loss for the six months ended August
31, 1997 of $207,713 compared to a net income of $20,825 in the 1996 period.


                           LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of August 31, 1997, the Company's current liabilities exceeded current assets
by $1,545,833. This was due to cash used in operations and investing activities,
mostly offset by the bridge loans which were primarily from related parties and
the customer advances.  The use of cash is consistent with the Company's
strategic plan for strong growth and the Company feels that progress has been
made during the period (see Overview and Recent Developments). With this
strategic focus on growth in the volume of plasma collected, the short-term
impact on the Company's earnings and cash flow has been to postpone significant
profitability and positive cash flows until the later part of fiscal 1998 when
the Company believes that the volumes in several of the newly established
centers will reach maturity, new products will begin shipping, new sales
contracts will bring higher plasma pricing and new softgoods and supplies
pricing will provide for improved gross margins.  Meanwhile, the Company's
projected capital requirements for fiscal 1998 include the establishment of
additional plasma centers and the acquisitions of Western States Plasma Group,
Inc. and Consolidated Technologies, Inc. and an affiliate.
<PAGE>

Net cash used in operations increased from $266,139 for the six months of 1996
to cash used in operations of  $1,049,874 for the comparable period in 1997.
The increase was primarily related to the increase in inventories associated
with the delay in shipments to Grifols and the establishment of the new centers.
Cash flows used in investing activities for the six months ended August 31, 1997
was  $825,266 compared to $626,419 for the comparable prior year period.  This
increase in cash used resulted primarily from the capital requirements of the
newly established plasma collection centers in Clearfield, Raleigh, Macon,
Pasco, Toledo and Pocatello.    Cash flows provided by financing activities was
$1,376,134 for the current year period compared to  $348,313 for the comparable
prior period. This increase was mostly due to the bridge loans (primarily from
officers) and the customer advances which were used to finance the Company's
expansion program and for working capital.

Management believes that the funds necessary to meet the Company's projected
capital requirements for fiscal 1998 will exceed internally generated cash flows
and accordingly  will need to be funded by a combination of internally generated
cash flows, short-term bridge financing, private placements and/or other
possible sources.  Accordingly, the Company is currently evaluating alternatives
for providing the required funding.
