Abstract
A multilayer silver halide color photographic element comprising at least one blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer comprising a blue spectral sensitizing dye and a supersensitizing amount of a disulfide compound of formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4, equal or different, each represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, R.sub.5 represents a hydrogen atom, a formyl group or an acetyl group, R.sub.6 and R.sub.7, equal or different, each represents a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, or R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 represent the elements needed to complete an unsaturated cyclic nucleus. The combination provides a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having high sensitivity, low fog and good resistance against fading of the latent image.
