biuret test









































the biuret test, also known as piotrowski's test, is a chemical test used for detecting the presence of peptide bonds. in the presence of peptides, a copper(ii) ion forms mauve-colored coordination complexes in an alkaline solution. several variants on the test have been developed, such as the bca test and the modified lowry test.

the reagent is commonly used in the biuret protein assay, a colorimetric test used to determine protein concentration by uv/vis spectroscopy at wavelength 540 nm.

two major modifications of the biuret test are commonly applied in modern colorimetric analysis of peptides: the bicinchoninic acid (bca) assay and the lowry assay. in these tests, the cu formed during the biuret reaction reacts further with other reagents, leading to a deeper color.
