| Segment Information | 
        
 L. Segment
 Information: 
 
 The Company has two
 reportable segments based on the nature of its products. The
 Company’s Biotechnology reporting segment develops,
 manufactures and sells biotechnology research and diagnostic
 products world-wide. The Company’s Clinical Controls
 reporting segment develops and manufactures controls and
 calibrators for sale world-wide. No customer in the Biotechnology
 segment accounted for more than 10% of the segments net sales for
 the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012. One customer
 accounted for approximately 14% of Clinical Controls’ net
 sales during fiscal 2014. No single customer accounted for more
 than 10% of Clinical Controls’ net sales in fiscal 2013 or
 2012. There are no concentrations of business transacted with a
 particular customer or supplier or concentrations of revenue from a
 particular product or geographic area that would severely impact
 the Company in the near term. 
 The accounting policies of
 the segments are the same as those described in Note A. In
 evaluating segment performance, management focuses on sales and
 earnings before taxes.
