I have put the bifolia (inside and outside) for herbal, balneological/biological, recipes, and stars here:

Since the astronomical, zodiacal, and rose foldouts are already singulions, they aren't included in the folder.
It's important to distinguish between the inner side of the bifolium (e.g. 78v|81r) and the outer side (e.g. 78r|81v). While it has been argued that some of the bifolia may have been inverted, the LSA data that Colin Layfield and I will be sharing when our article is published argues against any inversions.
A note about terminology, just so we're all on the same page (so to speak):
One side of one leaf (e.g. 78r) is a page;
A leaf (e.g. f. 78 recto and verso) is a folio;
Two leaves that share the same sheet (e.g. 78 and 81) make a bifolium;
Those two connected leaves are conjoint;
A quire made out of one bifolium is called a singulion. (two nested bifolia = a binion; three is a ternion; four is a quaternion; etc.)
I've named the bifolia with their quire, position in that quire (from the outside in), and the suffix [a] for the outside, [b] for the inside. For example, the file titled "13.1a 75r 84v" is the outer side [a] of the outermost bifolium [1] of quire 13, which preserves f. 75r and its conjoint 84v. I hope that's clear.
