Biuret by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as carbamylurea, this is a condensation product of two molecules of urea. The reagent is available as a powder which is soluble in hot water. It has a melting point of 190 C at which it decomposes. Biuret can be generated by heating urea above the melting point at which temperature ammonia is expelled. While it is stable under general conditions, this reagent is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. CAS No.: 108-19-0 Quantity Provided: 100 gm per bottle Molecular formula: C2H5N3O2 Molecular weight: 103.08 Assay: 97 %Biuret has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. This reagent finds applications in the organic synthesis of various derivatives. Biuret is popularly named in a chemical test for proteins and polypeptides. The compound is used as a non-protein nitrogen source in ruminant feed. Its lower digestibility slows down the digestion and hence decreases the risk of ammonia toxicity. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
