EXHIBIT 31.1

                    CERTIFICATION OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
                       PURSUANT TO RULES 13a-14 AND 15d-14
                     OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

I, Michael R. Granito, Chairman of Quick Med Technologies, Inc. (the "Company"),
certify that:

         I have reviewed this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of the Company.

         Based on my knowledge, this Annual 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 Annual
Report.

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

         The Company's other certifying officer and I are responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14) for the Company and have:

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

         (b)      evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure
                  controls and procedures and presented in this report our
                  conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
                  and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this
                  Annual Report based on such evaluation; and

         (c)      disclosed in this Annual Report any change in the Company's
                  internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
                  the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially
                  affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
                  Company's internal control over financial reporting; and

         The Company's other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on
our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the
Company's auditors and to the audit committee of the board of directors (or
persons fulfilling the equivalent function):

         (i)      all significant deficiencies in the design or operation of
                  internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably
                  likely to adversely affect the Company's ability to record,
                  process, summarize and report financial information; and

         (ii)     any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
                  or other employees who have a significant role in the
                  Company's internal control over financial reporting.
