               This Amendment No. 10 to Schedule 13D relates to shares of common
stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "Shares"),  of Ortec International,  Inc.
(the  "Issuer").  This  Amendment  No.  10  supplementally  amends  the  initial
statement  on Schedule 13D dated  September  29,  1997,  filed by the  Reporting
Persons  (as defined  herein)  and all  amendments  thereto  (collectively,  the
"Initial  Statement").  This Amendment No. 10 is being filed to report that as a
result of a recent  acquisition of Shares of the Issuer, the number of Shares of
which certain of the Reporting  Persons may be deemed the beneficial  owners has
increased by more than one percent of the total outstanding Shares.  Capitalized
terms used but not defined  herein shall have the  meanings  ascribed to them in
the  Initial  Statement.  The Initial  Statement  is  supplementally  amended as
follows.

Item 2.        Identity and Background.

               This  Statement  is being  filed by SFM LLC,  Mr.  Soros  and Mr.
Druckenmiller (collectively, the "Reporting Persons"). This Statement relates to
Shares held for the accounts of Quasar Partners and Lupa.

               Updated information  concerning the Managing Directors of SFM LLC
is set forth in Annex A hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

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

               JS&C expended approximately  $1,645,725 of the working capital of
Lupa to purchase the Shares  reported  herein as being  acquired  since April 9,
1998 (the date of filing of the last statement on Schedule 13D).

Item 5.        Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

               (a)  (i) As a  consequence  of SFM LLC's ability to terminate the
JS&C Contract with respect to all  investments,  including  those  involving the
Shares  held  for the  account  of  Quasar  Partners,  and  acquire  voting  and
dispositive power over the Shares held for the account of Quasar Partners within
60 days,  notwithstanding  the fact  that  none of SFM LLC,  Mr.  Soros  and Mr.
Druckenmiller  currently  exercises  such  power,  SFM LLC,  Mr.  Soros  and Mr.
Druckenmiller  may be deemed the beneficial owner of the 823,800 Shares held for
the account of Quasar Partners.  In total, each of SFM LLC and Mr. Druckenmiller
may be deemed the beneficial owner of the 823,800 Shares held for the account of
Quasar   Partners   (approximately   14.29%  of  the  total   number  of  Shares
outstanding).

                    (ii) The  aggregate  number of Shares of which Mr. Soros may
be deemed the beneficial owner is 1,082,100  (approximately  18.76% of the total
number of Shares  outstanding).  This number consists of (A) 823,800 Shares held
for the account of Quasar Partners and (B) 258,300 for the account of Lupa.

                  23,700 Shares are held for the account of Quasar Rabbico N.V.,
a Netherlands  Antilles  corporation  ("Quasar Rabbico") which is a wholly owned
subsidiary  of  Quasar  Partners.  Investment  discretion  granted  to SFM  LLC,
pursuant  to  contracts  with the SFM  Clients,  does not  extend  to  portfolio
investments of Quasar Rabbico,  including the investment in the Shares.  Each of
SFM  LLC,  Mr.  Soros  and  Mr.  Druckenmiller  expressly  disclaims  beneficial
ownership of any such Shares.

               (b)  (i) The power to direct the voting  and  disposition  of the
Shares  held for the  account of Quasar  Partners  is  currently  vested in JS&C
pursuant to the JS&C Contract.  SFM LLC has the contractual  authority on behalf
of Quasar  Partners  to  terminate  the JS&C  Contract  within 60 days and, as a
result,  SFM LLC,  Mr.  Soros  and Mr.  Druckenmiller  may be deemed to have the
voting and dispositive power held by JS&C, notwithstanding the fact that none of
SFM LLC, Mr. Soros and Mr.  Druckenmiller  currently  exercises such power, with
respect to the 823,800 Shares held for the account of Quasar Partners.

                    (ii) The power to direct the voting and  disposition  of the
Shares held for the account of Lupa is currently  vested in JS&C pursuant to the
Lupa  Contract.  Mr.  Soros,  by virtue of his position as a general  partner of
Lupa,  has the  contractual  authority on behalf of Lupa to  terminate  the Lupa
Contract  within 60 days and, as a result,  Mr.  Soros may be deemed to have the
voting and  dispositive  power held by JS&C,  notwithstanding  the fact that Mr.
Soros currently does not exercise such power, with respect to the 258,300 Shares
held for the account of Lupa. Mr. Paul Soros, the other general partner of Lupa,
does not normally  exercise  voting and  dispositive  power over the investments
held for the account of Lupa.

               (c) Except for the transactions  disclosed on Annex B hereto, all
of which were  effected  in the  over-the-counter  market in  routine  brokerage
transactions,  there have been no transactions  with respect to the Shares since
April 9, 1998 (the date of filing of the last  statement on Schedule 13D) by any
of the Reporting Persons, Quasar Partners or Lupa.

               (d)  (i)  The  partners  of  Quasar  Partners,  including  Quasar
International Fund N.V., a Netherlands Antilles  corporation,  have the right to
participate in the receipt of dividends  from, or proceeds from the sale of, the
Shares  held for the  account  of  Quasar  Partners  in  accordance  with  their
partnership interests in Quasar Partners.

                    (ii) The partners of Lupa have the right to  participate  in
the  receipt  of  dividends  from,  or  proceeds  from the sale of,  securities,
including the Shares,  held by Lupa in accordance with their ownership interests
in Lupa.

               (e)      Not applicable.


               SFM LLC  and  Mr.  Druckenmiller  expressly  disclaim  beneficial
ownership of any Shares not held for the accounts of the SFM Clients.  Mr. Soros
expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of any Shares not held for the accounts
of the SFM Clients and Lupa.
