The copper atoms of Biuret solution (CuSO4 and KOH) will react with peptide bonds, producing a color change.
A deep violet or blue color indicates the presence of proteins and a light pink color indicates the presence of peptides.

purple
When the isolated beta amylase enzyme is subjected to the biuret test, you will observe a color change from yellow to blue. This is because the biuret reagent reacts with the peptide bonds in the enzyme, causing a change in color.
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 presence of protein.
When being tested with biuret reagent, protein turns a blue to lilac color. However, starches when tested do change to a blackish blue color.
Copper sulphate gives biuret reagent it's blue colour.

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.

changes color

A positive test, when using Biuret reagent, would be purple-ish
no! no change in colour confirms presence of cysteine
Casein form a purple compound in the biuret test.
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.

To test for protein. Biuret or solutions of sodium hydroxide and copper sulfate. Tested with a dropper a + result will be purple or something
