   Cellular Products Gets
   Approval for Test Kit

   BUFFALO, N. Y. -- Cellular Products Inc. said it received
federal approval to market Retro-Tek HTLV-3 Elisa, a test kit
to be used by blood banks to screen for HTLV-3, an agent of
acquired immune deficiency syndrome, or AIDS. 
   The developer of diagnostic tests, services and research
products said it plans to sell the kit world-wide under the
company's trademark as well as under private labels.  The
company said it expects to begin shipping the kit
domestically within two weeks, but anticipates a six-month
lag in shipping internationally because of foreign regulatory
requirements.
