   Item 1.   Security and Issuer.

             The title of the class of equity securities to which this
   Schedule 13D relates is the common stock, $0.01 par value (the "Common
   Stock"), of Hydron Technologies, Inc. (the "Company").  The Company's
   principal executive offices are located at 1001 Yamato Road, Suite 403,
   Boca Raton, Florida 33431.


   Item 2.   Identity and Background.

             This statement is being filed by the following person and
   entity:

   (i)  Victor N. Grillo ("Grillo"), a United States citizen, whose
        business address is 150 East Palmetto Park Road, Suite 700, Boca
        Raton, Florida 33432.  Grillo's principal occupation is President
        of DTR Associates, Inc.; and

   (ii) DTR Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited
        partnership ("DTR"), with a business address of 150 East Palmetto
        Park Road, Suite 700, Boca Raton, FL 33432.  The principal business
        of DTR is engaged in the business of developing, marketing and
        distributing consumer products through direct response and retail
        distribution channels.

   Collectively, Grillo and DTR are hereinafter sometimes referred to as
   the "Reporting Persons."

             Grillo and DTR may be deemed to be beneficial owners of
   securities of the Company owned by either party.

             During the past five years, the Reporting Persons have not (i)
   been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or
   similar misdemeanors) or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a
   judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a
   result was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
   future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to,
   federal or state securities laws, or finding any violation with respect
   to such laws.


   Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

             On March 9, 1992, Dento-Med Industries, Inc., now known as the
   Company, granted DTR an option to purchase 350,000 shares of Common
   Stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share.  On October 3, 1994, DTR
   assigned its rights to purchase an aggregate of 279,166 shares of Common
   Stock to 12 persons.  It retained options to purchase up to 70,834
   shares of Common Stock.  The options were exercisable until March 8,
   1997.  DTR did not exercise the options to purchase up to 70,834 shares
   of Common Stock.

             On July 19, 1996, the Company granted to DTR an option to
   purchase 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price of $.01
   per share (the "DTR Option") in exchange for DTR agreeing to terminate


<PAGE>


   its rights to receive royalty payments in return for the DTR Option.  On
   January 3, 1997, DTR exercised options to purchase 1,500,000 shares of
   Common Stock of the Company at a purchase price of $.01 per share.  The
   1,500,000 shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the exercise of
   the options by DTR were assigned to Grillo.  The source of funds for the
   purchase of the Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of the DTR Option
   was from the working capital of DTR.


   Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

             The purchase of the Common Stock to which this statement
   relates was effected for the purposes of investment.  The Reporting
   Persons have no present plans or proposals to change the Company's
   business, corporate structure, capitalization, management or dividend
   policy.

             Except as set forth in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons have
   no present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of
   the following (although the Reporting Persons reserve the right to
   develop such plans or proposals or any other plans relating to the
   Company and to take action with respect thereto):  (i) the acquisition
   by any person of additional securities of the Company, or the
   disposition of securities of the Company; (ii) an extraordinary
   corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation,
   involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) a sale or
   transfer of a material amount of assets of the Company or any of its
   subsidiaries; (iv) any change in the present board of directors or
   management of the Company, including any plans or proposals to change
   the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the
   board; (v) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend
   policy of the Company; (vi) any other material change in the Company's
   business or corporate structure; (vii) changes in the Company's
   certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or instruments corresponding
   thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of
   the Company by any person; (viii) causing a class of securities of the
   Company to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease
   to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a
   registered national securities association; (ix) a class of equity
   securities of the Company becoming eligible for termination of
   registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Exchange Act; or (x)
   any action similar to any of those enumerated above.


   Item 5.   Interest in Securities of Issuer.

             Grillo and DTR may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of
   securities of the Company held by either party.  As of the close of
   business on March 8, 1997, DTR no longer owned any beneficial interest
   in the Company's securities.  As of March 12, 1997, Grillo beneficially
   owns and has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to 1,480,000
   shares of Common Stock representing approximately 6.37% of the Common
   Stock outstanding.  

             On March 11, 1997, Grillo sold 9,000 shares and 1,000 shares
   of Common Stock at a price per share of $1.8125 and $1.4375,


<PAGE>



   respectively.  On March 12, 1997, Grillo sold 10,000 shares of Common
   Stock at a price per share of $1.8125.

             Except as described herein, no transactions in Common Stock
   were effected during the past 60 days by the Reporting Persons.


   Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with
             Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

             There are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or
   relationships (legal or otherwise) between the Reporting Persons and any
   other person with respect to securities of the Company, including but
   not limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities finder's
   fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, put or calls,
   guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss or the giving or
   withholding of proxies.


   Item 7.  Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
