question on buiret test

[sarah_faith]

Will a denatured protein still give a positive result for the buiret test?

Will a denatured protein still give a positive result for the buiret test?

No. Because the bonding and structure of the protein is changed, and chemically it is a different substance. So it will not take part in the reaction, the way a normal protein does.
