Pepsin does not test positive in the biuret test. The biuret test is used to detect the presence of proteins in a solution, which contain peptide bonds. Pepsin is an enzyme that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides, so it does not give a positive result in the biuret test.
Gelatin and egg albumin.
At least two peptide bonds must be present in a molecule to give a positive biuret test. The biuret reagent interacts with peptide bonds in proteins, forming a colored complex that can be detected visually.
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.

No, phenol does not give a positive biuret test. The biuret test is used to detect the presence of proteins, not phenol. Phenol is a type of organic compound that does not contain the peptide bonds that the biuret test reacts with.

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!
Yes, the biuret test will indicate the presence of peptides. If it turns violet, it is a positive result.
Yes, alanine will give a negative Biuret test. The Biuret test is used to detect the presence of proteins, which are made up of long chains of amino acids. Since alanine is a single amino acid, it will not give a positive response in the Biuret test.
Amino acids doesn't react with the biuret reagent.
You must have at least two, those that will form the peptide linkage (NH2 and COOH) since Biuret test is for detecting peptide linkages.
In a negative Biuret test, the solution will remain its original color (usually blue) and there will be no color change to pink or purple, indicating the absence of proteins in the sample.
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.
The reagent commonly used to test for proteins is Biuret reagent. It reacts with peptide bonds in proteins to form a color change, ranging from blue (negative) to purple (positive), indicating the presence of proteins in the sample.
