Abstract
The present invention concerns a method of treating a seasoned ascorbic acid developer for developing silver halide photographic products. The method of the invention comprises the step of treating the developer through a resin having a greater selectivity for bromide ions than for carbonate ions. This method enables ascorbic acid developers to be regenerated efficaciously.
