What chemical reagent of protein?
Biuret reagent is used to test for protein in urine. It is a common test that students in biology class perform. Urine is added to a test tube, followed by approximately the same amount of Biuret reagent. If the solution turns lavender this means that there are proteins present in the urine.
What reagent used to test heller's test in protein precipitation?
Nitric acid
Test for protein in food?
The Biuret reagent can be used.
What is million reagent?
You probably mean Millon's reagent. Millon's reagent is a solution of mercury in nitric acid which is used as a test for the amino acid tyrosine. Since proteins contain tyrosine, it is also used as a test for protein. When the test solution is boiled with Millon's reagent a white precipitate (solid) is produced which coagulates and turns red.
What might Biuret reagent test in a practical real life situation?
Biuret reagent test in a practical situation tests for lipids. Biuret is used in food agents for protein amino acid chains.
What reagent is used to detect protein in a solution?
biuret reagent
What reagent is used to test for glucose and starch?
Glucose meter and test stripe
What reagent is used to test for unsaturated hydrocarbons?
This reagent is bromine in solution.
What reagent is used to test for starch?
The reagent that is used to test for starch is a mixture of iodine and potassium iodide in water, or an Iodine - KI reagent. If the reagent turns blue-black in color, then starch is present.
What compounds other than a-napthol can be used as a reagent for the test?
the compounds other than alpha-naphthol can be used as a reagent for the Molisch's test are the love formula.
What chemical reagent is used for proteins?
The biuret test tests for peptide (protein) bonds. In a test with a protein containing substance, a Copper(II) ion is reduced to Copper(I) which forms a compound with the nitrogen and carbon atoms of the peptide (protein) bonds in an alkaline (pH above 7) solution. If the solution goes to a purply-violet colour, proteins have been detected.
When biuret reagent is added to an unknown colorless solution the solution turns light purple. this indicates the presence of which molecules?
process that release energy by breaking down food molecules in the presence of oxygen
