Interesting!

It looks best on a monitor, and not my tiny phone where I first saw it

No longer available from any source I know

All still available X-Ray is very similar, green, blue, double speed means nothing for us. It is all double sided.

There is a bit of Mammo film left, but only metric sizes as far as I know

Be careful what you buy and make sure it is wet process and not DRY, or digital or anything else

How about film described as 'Blue x-ray film for Western Blot'. 'Consistently Superior Results for Chemiluminescence; Excellent for Autoradiography of 14C, 35S, 32P, 33P, 125I'.

I've written to the seller, but wonder if anyone here knows anything about this? It seems to be re-packaged Fuji film, but they don't say which.
