Abstract
THE quantitative determination of the amounts of dyes taken up by crystalline solids has both a general and special interest. The adsorption of dyes to silver halides, and particularly of sensitising dyes, has considerable photographic importance in relation to the theory of optical sensitising. Work has been in progress for some time in this laboratory on this problem by methods devised by the writer and Mr. H. Crouch. The dyes investigated are of the iso-cyanine and carbo-cyanine class, and the bulk of the work so far has been carried out with orthochrome T-bromide (p-toluquinaldin-p-toluquinoline-ethylcyanine bromide).
