Designed for classroom science activities and student investigations, the kit combines a 395nm UV torch, colour-changing UV beads and a UV detection card in one convenient set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe UV-sensitive beads change from their pale appearance to bright colours when exposed to ultraviolet light, providing an immediate visual indication of UV exposure. Students can use the beads to compare different conditions, materials and environments, while the UV detection card provides an additional tool for investigating ultraviolet light. The kit is well suited to demonstrations, group activities and science fair investigations where students can develop and test their own hypotheses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKit
