autorad cassettes

[Michelle Waycott]

Hello everyone,

What is the situation regarding autoradiograph cassettes.  I have only
used the (very) expensive light sealed cassettes such as that from Fuji
but I believe that there are alternatives were you might buy the
intensifier screens and a carboard "sleeve" which is light sealed. 
These can then be exposed at -80C.
Is this procedure used regularly by some groups and if so any
suggestions about suppliers and or sources of screens and "sleeves"
would be helpful.  

Mitch
