I,
      David
      M. Ross, Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, certify
      that:





1. I
          have
          reviewed this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Diapulse Corporation of
          America,
          a Delaware Corporation;





2. Based
          on
          my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material
          fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
          made, in
          light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading
          with respect to the period covered by this report;





3. Based
          on
          my knowledge, the financial statements and other financial information
          included
          in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition,
          results of operations and cash flows of the small business issuer as of,
          and
          for, the periods presented in this report.





4. I
            am
            responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
            procedures
            (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal
            control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act
            Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the small business issuer and
            have:





(a) Designed
          such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls
          and
          procedures to be designed under my supervision, to ensure that material
          information relating to the small business issuer, including its consolidated
          subsidiaries, is made known to me by others within those entities, particularly
          during the period in which this report is being
          prepared;





(b) Designed
          such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal
          control
          over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide
          reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and
          the
          preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance
          with
          generally accepted accounting principles;





(c) Evaluated
        the effectiveness of the small business issuer’s disclosure controls and
        procedures and presented in this report my conclusions about the effectiveness
        of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered
        by this report based on such evaluation; and





(d) Disclosed
        in this report any change in the small business issuer’s internal control over
        financial reporting that occurred during the small business issuer’s most recent
        fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
        materially affect, the small business issuer’s internal control over financial
        reporting; and





5. I
        have
        disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation of internal control over financial
        reporting, to the small business issuer’s auditors and the audit committee of
        the small business issuer’s board of directors (or persons performing the
        equivalent functions}:





(a) All
        significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation
        of
        internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
        adversely affect the small business issuer’s ability to record, process,
        summarize and report financial information; and





(b) Any
        fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees
        who
        have a significant role in the small business issuer’s internal control over
        financial reporting.
