Abstract
Abstract A silver halide photographic emulsion sensitized with the combination of (1) at least one dimethine merocyanine dye wherein the carbon atom at the 2-position of an oxazole nucleus bearing an alkyl group containing a sulfo or a carboxyl group on the nitrogen atom at the 3-position thereof and the carbon atom at the 5-position of a 2-thiohydantoin nucleus bearing a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group on the nitrogen atom at the 1- and 3positions thereof are connected with each other through a dimethine chain, and (2) at least one of a J-band type carbocyanine dye wherein a sulfo group-containing alkyl group is attached to the nitrogen atom at the 3-position of a naphthothiazole nucleus, a naphthoselenazole nucleus, a benzothiazole nucleus or a benzoselenazole nucleus and the carbon atom at the 2-position is attached to mesoalkyl-substituted trimethine chain is disclosed.
