  Sodium thiosulfate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The thiosulfate anion is tetrahedral in shape and is notionally derived by replacing one of the oxygen atoms by a sulfur atom in a sulfate anion.
Perhaps most notably in the laboratory, the thiosulfate anion reacts stoichiometrically with iodine, reducing it to iodide as it is oxidized to tetrathionate:
The thiosulfate ion can decompose into the sulfite ion and a colloidal suspension of sulfur, which is opaque.

Sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) is a reducing agent that reacts with oxidizing agents, specifically, hypochlorous acid (HOCl) which is the active ingredient in household bleach, according the reaction: HOCl + 2(S2O3)^-2 -----------> Cl^-1 + (S4O6)^-2 + OH^-1 Unfortunately, it does not react with organic chlorine compounds such as PCB's, etc. to neutralize them.

 Medical Dictionary: Sodium thiosulfate - WrongDiagnosis.com
Sodium thiosulfate: A water soluble salt and reducing agent that reacts with oxidizing agents.
Although its exact mechanism of action is unknown, thiosulfate likely provides an exogenous source of sulfur, thereby hastening the detoxification of cyanide through the enzyme rhodanese (thiosulfate cyanide sulfurtransferase) which converts cyanide to the relatively nontoxic, excretable thiocyanate ion.
In addition, this agent neutralizes the reactive alkylating species of nitrogen mustard and may decrease cutaneous toxicity related to nitrogen mustard extravasation.

that´s ok but hypam is an acid fixer and i want to make a rapid alkaline fixer from sodium thiosulfate, that´s it, more, no one knows if the rapid acid fixer made from sodium thiosulfate and ammonium chloride takes to longer washing times than with other acid fixers
For the trouble to mix and use your own Amonium thiosulfate fixer you could just treat your Hypham-fixed prints in Kodalk as a pre-treatment for toning for five minutes --that is, if this is the goal.
An important note is that Amonium Thiosulfate fixers used with extended fixing times will produce argentothiosulfates which are difficult to wash out of a print (see The Photographer's Cookbook).
