Letter

United States Securities and Exchange Commission 450 Fifth Street, Northwest Washington, D.C. 20549 RE: DiaSys Corporation - SEC File No. 1-16285

Dear Mr. Mancuso:

This letter is in response to your letter of March 18, 2005 addressed to Mr. Gregory Witchel, Chief Executive Officer of DiaSys Corporation (the "Company"). This firm represents DiaSys Corporation.

We have reviewed the matters addressed in your letter with Company management and representatives of the Company's independent registered public accountant and our responses are based upon such discussions.

Please note that the individual responses are numbered to correspond with the comments raised in your letter.

On June 30, 2005 the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on form 10-KSB for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 (the "amended Form 10-KSB") and its Quarterly Report of Form 10-QSB for the period ended March 31, 2005.

Item 1. Description of Business - Page 1.

1. Please ensure that you discuss all material developments in your business during the period addressed, including changes in control.

The Company will make every effort to ensure that matters of material development are properly addressed in future filings.

Mr. Russell Mancuso, Branch Chief

July 14, 2005

Page 2 of 22

2. Please provide us independent, objective evidence supporting the cost claims in the first paragraph.

The Company has no independent, objective evidence supporting the cost claims referred to; however, management believes that by automating the laboratory analysis processes, its customers will save labor expense in handling the separate steps of the analytical processes involved.

3. Please file the agreements evidencing your strategic relationships and material distribution agreements. Also, disclose the material terms of the agreements, including duration and termination provisions and the material obligations of the parties.

Copies of agreements evidencing continuing material strategic relationships were filed with the amended Form 10-KSB. The term of the agreement has been added to the disclosure but management believes that disclosing additional information with filings provide competitive information.

4. Please revise your Form 10-KSB to use the correct Item headings and update the disclosure to the extent required by Regulation S-B. We note reports of developments regarding your products, patents and distribution agreements that do not appear to be reflected in your document. To the extent that you believe that your announcements of developments during the year do not require disclosure in your 10-KSB, supplementally explain your conclusions.

The Company has reviewed the headings and made adjustments as appropriate in the amended Form 10-KSB. The Company has reviewed the completeness of its disclosures regarding updates to products, patents and distribution agreements and made adjustments as appropriate in Item 1 of the amended Form 10-KSB.

Adjustments to item headings.

1. amended Form 10-KSB changes the heading of Item 2 from "Properties" to "Description of Property."

5. Please discuss the production problems in 2004 related to the paracep tube.

The production problems related to the maintenance of the equipment and protocol used by the plastic injection mould manufacturer. A maintenance routine of quality control checks resulted in a higher than acceptable failure rate. After investigation the manufacturer made adjustments to the moulds to cure all issues. Additional information provided in the Net Sales section of amended Form 10-KSB.

Competition - Page 7

7. Please ensure that you have fully described your competitive advantages and disadvantages. From your existing disclosure, it is unclear why your products have not yet achieved wider penetration.

Mr. Russell Mancuso, Branch Chief

July 14, 2005

Page 4 of 22

Additional disclosure has been made regarding the disadvantages of the Company's products under the heading "Disposable Diagnostic Products and Test Kits in amended Form 10-KSB on page 8.

Patents

8. Please discuss in greater detail your material patents, such as the duration of specific patents that are material to your business.

Additional disclosure has been made regarding the expiration of the Company's patents under the heading "Patents and Trademarks" on page 9 in amended Form 10-KSB.

Government Regulation - Page 9

9. With a view toward disclosure, please tell us why your R/S and F/E products are exempt from FDA pre-market notification.

The primary function of the Company's R/S and F/E products are to move bodily fluid for direct microscopic viewing by laboratory technicians without diagnostic prompting. The products are thus exempt from FDA pre-market notification because they merely assist laboratory technicians in preparing the materials for microscopic analysis and no direct medical function is performed.

Equity Compensation Plan Information - Page 14

10. Provide the disclosure required by Regulation S-B Item 201(d)(3).

The Company believes that it has furnished the required information on page 14 in the amended Form 10-KSB.

The statement in question was not intended to incorporate other material by reference. It has been removed from Item 6 of the amended Form 10-KSB.

13. Please expand to provide critical accounting policy disclosure. Refer to FR-60 and FR-72 for guidance. Please note that critical accounting policy disclosure should provide insight about complex judgments and estimates that underlie the accounting policies you identify as critical. Disclosure that merely repeats basic accounting policies will not generally satisfy the objectives of the disclosure.

Additional material regarding critical accounting policy disclosures has been added to the amended Form 10-KSB.

Liquidity and Capital Resources - Page 15

14. We see that your operations consume significant cash. We also see negative operating cash flows are continuing in 2005. Please expand to present an analysis of cash flows from operating activities. That analysis should fully reflect the guidance set forth in FR-72 (Exchange Act release 34-48960). As noted in the Release, we believe that this discussion should focus on the underlying drivers of operating cash flows. Please note that the form of the cash flow statement should not drive the substance of the analysis and that it is not sufficient to merely recite the line items from the cash flow statement.

Additional material has been added. The Company added additional disclosure in the Financial Condition section on page 15 in the amended Form 10-KSB.

15. Additionally, please discuss any material commitments for capital and R&D expenditures and the expected sources of funding for such expenditures. Apply in future filings.

Mr. Russell Mancuso, Branch Chief

The Company does not have material commitments for capital and warranty expenditures; however, it continues to lose money from operations and requires funding for such losses.

16. Provide sufficient disclosure for investors to appreciate your cost of capital and the trends during the period addressed. For example, discuss the terms of the securities issued or issuable, including any discounts to the market price of your securities.

Additional material has been added under the heading "Financial Condition" on page 17 in the amended Form 10-KSB.

Results of Operations - Page 16

17. Under Net Sales, please expand to describe why the factors listed resulted in a decrease in sales over the prior year. For example, describe the nature of the transition in the Company's sales force and why that transition produced decreased sales. Additionally, disclose why your largest client reduced orders during the year. In general, MD&A both should identify factors responsible for changes in financial statement items and describe why those factors arose or occurred.

Additional disclosure has been provided in the Net Sales section of the amended Form 10-KSB.

18. We see that interest expense increased from approximately $6,000 to more than $450,000 from fiscal 2003 to fiscal 2004. Please add distinct MD&A discussion about this item. Describe the nature of and accounting for any unusual factors or items included in the fiscal 2004 amount.

These matters will be addressed in connection with the next proxy statement or, if required, in the Company's next Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

23. Please provide the disclosure required by Item 406 of Regulation S-B.

The Board of Directors has adopted a code of ethics, a copy of which has been filed with the amended Form 10-KSB.

Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related-Party Transactions

24. Please disclose any discounts to the market price indicated in the issuance or conversion rates of securities issued to related parties.

All securities issued to related parties, including conversion prices and exercise prices, were valued at current market prices at the time the respective agreements or commitments were made.

26. Please tell us whether the Forms 4 that you disclose as having not been
filed were ever filed.

that from and after January 1, 2004, all information currently on file with the
commission has correctly reflected the stock ownership of the officers, directors
and ten percent shareholders.
