There was some discussion of Eucalyptus oil on AMIA-L and according
to some they (Eucalyptus oils) are not all the same. I can vouch
for these claims because I use gum Arabic for a variety of things
photographic and like many botanical products "gum" varies by
region, climate, and annual rainfall. Ain't science great! Mick
Newnham from the National Film and Sound Archive, Australia, had an
interesting post along the same lines about Eucalyptus oil, a staple
product from his neck of the woods:

. Also, a search of the AMIA listserv for Eucalyptus will yield
some links regarding the foam problem:

Not all the foam was bad. The story is another company
supplied the glue that was bad. I'm not sure I believe that.
Selling glue to 3M?<br>
