I have no idea where they got it. The paper from Kodak Labs describes the working solution as 2% sulfite. The formula I have for KHCA is: Sodium Sulfite, dessicated 100 grams Sodium bisulfite 25 grams EDTA tetra-sodium salt 5 grams Sodium Citrate 5 grams Water to make 1 liter This is also in line with the MSDS Also note that 200 grams/liter is close to the saturation limit for Sodium sulfite. --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA dickburk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ============================================================================================================= To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
