No
you should have at least 2 of these,to obtain a positive result in Biuret's test. because biuret test is a test used to detect if there is peptide linkages.
No. The Biuret test only gives a positive result if a peptide bond exists. Phenol doesn't have a peptide bond, so it will not give a positive test.
Yes, the biuret test will indicate the presence of peptides. If it turns violet, it is a positive result.
Amino acids doesn't react with the biuret reagent.
A positive test, when using Biuret reagent, would be purple-ish
The biuret solution used in the biuret test for peptide bonds is blue in the absence of peptide bonds or biuret which also results in a positive result. A positive result for peptide bonds or biuret is apparent as the biuret solution turns purple/violet in color.
no! no change in colour confirms presence of cysteine
Hey. okay.. the biuret test is a test for peptide bonds. when CuSO4 is added to KOH, an alkaline solution, nitrogen atoms from the peptide bond forms a purple compound with the Cu2+ ions. hope this helps! read it in a text book.
in biuret test the presence of peptide bonds gives a violet color. but it should be noted that a minimum of two peptide bonds should be present in the protein to get a positive answer to this test.
The conclusion is that the sample contain proteins.
Casein form a purple compound in the biuret test.
