Section 3-Securities and Trading Markets

Item 3.01- Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing

     On April 21, 2005 we received notice from the staff of the American Stock Exchange indicating that we do not meet certain of the Exchange’s continued listing standards as set forth in Section 1003(a)(iii) of the AMEX Company Guide in that we have shareholders equity of less than $6,000,000 and have incurred losses during the last five fiscal years. Accordingly, the staff of the Exchange has determined to proceed with the filing of an application to the Securities and Exchange Commission under Securities Exchange Act Rule 12d-2 to delist BioTime common stock and warrants from the Exchange.

     We have appealed this determination and have requested a hearing before a committee of the Exchange. There can be no assurance that this request for continued listing will be granted.

SIGNATURES

     Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
