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 is the difference between Benedict's Reagent and Biuret Reagent?

Benedicts reagent is used to check reducing sugars , it need hat to work and gives red color when positive ,. While biuret reagent is for proteins .there is no need to use heat and gives purple , violet color when positive ..


How amylase breakdown starch?

To test starch: To test starch you take the food sample, and add iodine solution if the colour turns black this means starch is present. To test for protein: To test for protein, you take the food sample and add Biuret A and Biuret B and shake, if the colour turns lilac this means that protein is present.


How many of these chemical groupings must be present in a molecule to give a positive biuret test?

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.


How does biuret solution test for protein?

Proteins are made of peptide bonds which is the target of reaction for biuret test. It's not truly specific for proteins; biuret itself also gives a positive result (hence the name of the test). However, proteins are fairly common and biuret (and similar peptide-containing compounds) are relatively rare.

If corn oil is tested with Benedicts's solution and Biuret reagent and the final color is blue what do you know about corn oil?

Benedict's solution tests for aldehyde which is present in reducing sugars. If the solution remained blue than no reducing sugar's are present in corn oil.

What color does biuret reagent turn if lipid is present?

If lipids are present, the solution will turn a purple/violet color.


When using Biuret reagent what indicates the presence of proteins?

Biuret solution turns a shade of purple if proteins are present. Specifically, it turns a shade of purple if peptide bonds are present. A peptide bond is the bond formed between amino acids.


What is the color of biruet solution?

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.


Why protein solution turns purple when copper sulfate solution is added?

Copper sulfate solution provides cupric ions that react with the peptide bonds present in the protein molecule. The test is called as biuret test, as it was originally given by biuret compound.( when urea is heated it forms biuret). The reaction is due to the formation of complex between the cupric ions and lone pair of electrons present on the Nitrogen and Oxygen atoms of peptide bond.


What is the reagent used to test proteins?

Buiret Reagent


An unknown sample is tested with both biuret reagent and benedicts reagent both test result in a blue color what has been learned and why are these called negative results?

That the unknown sample is not a monosaccharide and is does not contain peptide bonds (is not a protein). This is because they both produced negative results because Biuret tests positive in solutions that contain peptide bonds and will turn a violet color. Benedict reagent reacts to monosaccharides and will turn green-reddish orange when a monosaccharide is present. Neither of these things happened so the results are negative.
