The negative is plunged into thissaturative solution and washed for a surface water is then removed. It isthen immersed again for four or five min-utes in the saturated aqueous solution of.

Drying is completed bywiping the gelatine coating with a linen plate may later be washed and dried inthe regular way. 212 INTENSIFICATION Intensifying Previous to intensification, the plate mustbe thoroughly fixed and washed if streakingis to be avoided. Better intensification isobtained if the plate has been well dried, andsoaked just previous to the intensification. Solution 1 Bromide Potass 50 g. Mercury bichloride 50 g. Water 1000 ccm. Solution 2 Liq. ammon. caust 100 cm. Water 1000 ccm. These solutions keep and may be used re-peatedly. The plate to be intensified is soaked andthen placed in Solution 1 and constantlyrocked until it becomes gray. The negativeis washed for about fifteen minutes and thenput in solution 2 and rocked.
