A woman in lab coat and laced sneakers uses an amino acid analyzer. The photo captures an unusual angle, high above the woman's left shoulder.

Although unidentified, this is likely the Beckman/Spinco Model 120 Amino Acid Analyzer, first marketed in 1960, which allowed users to quickly perform amino acid chromatography.
