Condition: Like New

This Unit was purchased for use in a small beverage production laboratory but was never put into service. It has been removed from the original packaging, but it has never been used to perform a single test and remains in like-new condition.

The Sale Includes:

• The testing unit
• One unopened package of cuvettes
• All original accessories shown in photos

Please review all photos carefully, as they are part of the item description and show exactly what is included.

The Thermo Scientific GENESYS 10S UV-Vis spectrophotometer utilizes a high intensity xenon lamp and dual-beam optical geometry to deliver unsurpassed data quality. Firing pulses of light only when the instrument is taking a measurement, the xenon lamp provides strong illumination from the UV to the Near-IR region of the spectrum. This devise can be used to measure the below related to the brewing industry if desired.
