No because glucose does not consist of two or more peptide bonds
no
no! no change in colour confirms presence of cysteine
Starch is made up of repeating glucose units. Though it is a non reducing sugar, its hydrolysis gives out pure glucose, which is known as dextrose. And glucose, as we know, is a reducing sugar and hence would give a positive result in Benedict's 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.
Yes, it should. Benedicts test will be positive for reducing sugars, and since glucose is such a sugar, and would be a product of dextrin hydrolysis, you should get a positive result with Benedicts reagent.
The answer is no. Not sure why at the moment but a question on my homework for biology lab asks why did lysine not react to the biuret's solution. If I had to guess it would be because Biuret's test is for peptide bonds in proteins and, lysine is just an amino acid not an actual protein, hence no peptide bonds. This is what I have concluded from just thinking about it. Not one hundred percent sure.
A positive test, when using Biuret reagent, would be purple-ish

yes Gelatin will have a positive biuret test. this is because it has an amide group which bends over the copper ion giving the colour pink or violet off to the visual eye.
An iodine test is used to test for the presence of starch (or polysaccharides, specifically amylose or amylopectin). A Biuret solution test is used as an indicator for peptide bonds within proteins. Therefore, if you get a negative iodine test and a positive Biuret test, you would probably be testing a animal food source (beef, chicken, pork). Overall, any food that doesn't have starch present within it would be appropriate to use. Hope this helps!
This may be wrong but I think you could use the biuret test as this would only give a positive result in the test tube with protein in
a decrease in the amount of glucose in the blood
positive because if it would be negative it would be way on another subject.
Biuret test
828 glucose molecules and no water becuase hydrolysis removes water
