Abstract

A desalting method of a silver halide emulsion is disclosed, comprising removing soluble salts from the silver halide emulsion by electrodialysis, wherein said electrodialysis is carried out at a pH within a range of .+-.0.5 of an isoelectric point of a gelatin contained in the silver halide emulsion. Furthermore, by adding a salt during the course of the electrodialysis, the concentration of the emulsion is accomplished concurrently with desalting thereof.
