On Voynich_001r_bands01-22_RF+FL_cal_med3+box51x5_bad_22bands_blueRoI_RH_margin_shiftdif_MNF_R+3_G-4_B-5_scga.jpg, the whole set of columns looks consistently different from the main text -- less blue, whatever that might indicate.
But on closer examination, it looks like that difference may just have been caused by the chemical Wilfrid applied to part of this leaf. In those places where the last few glyphs in a line of the main text have become illegible in visible light, they have the same "non-blue" appearance in the MSI as the glyph columns do. The chemical also appears to have left a line of blue along the edge of where it was applied after it dried. Whatever substance the blue represents, could the chemical have dissolved and dispersed it?
