Sodium Bicarbonate, also known as baking soda, is an effective and versatile agent used in various stages of the photographic process. Its applications include:

- Serving as a key ingredient in hypo baths to ensure the thorough fixing of self-toning papers, thereby enhancing image stability and longevity.
- Playing a crucial role in gold toning baths, where it helps to achieve rich, archival-quality tones in photographic prints.
- Acting as an additive in developers to inhibit fog on photographic film and paper, contributing to clearer and more precise images.

This product draws on the historical significance of sodium bicarbonate's close relative, natron, which has been utilized since ancient Egyptian times for its preservative qualities, most notably in the preparation of mummies. Today, Photographers' Formulary has refined this compound to meet the exacting standards of modern photography.
