Typically, finished goods and work in process inventory, if any, are fully reserved except for the amounts deemed saleable by management based upon current or anticipated orders, primarily under contractual arrangements. Our reserves for finished goods and raw materials were $1,221,000 at June 30, 2011, a decrease of $56,000 from December 31, 2010.  Based upon expected future orders, $1,027,000 of our finished goods inventory and $1,293,000 of our raw material inventory were classified as a noncurrent asset at June 30, 2011.  We expect this inventory to be fully recoverable, therefore no reserve was established. In 2010, we temporarily ceased production of calcitonin and enzyme. This cessation of production has continued through the first half of 2011.
