A common test for nitrate ion is with diphenylamine.
Glucose meter and test stripe
This reagent is bromine in solution.
Biuret reagent is used to test for protein in urine. It is a common test that students in biology class perform. Urine is added to a test tube, followed by approximately the same amount of Biuret reagent. If the solution turns lavender this means that there are proteins present in the urine.
Tollen's reagent is usually ammoniacal silver nitrate. Even in other variations it consists of an aqueous diaminesilver (I) complex. This diaminesilver (I) complex acts as an agent. This when placed in a test tube forms a silver mirror. Tollen's reagent is generally ammoniacal silver nitrate. But it could be other reagents as well, as long as the complex diamminesilver(I) complex ion [Ag(NH3)2]+ can be generated.
the compounds other than alpha-naphthol can be used as a reagent for the Molisch's test are the love formula.
Reagent A: sulfanilic acid + acetic acid Reagent B: N,N,-dimethyl-I-naphthylamine + acetic acid
silver nitrate (AgNO3)
Glucose meter and test stripe
This reagent is bromine in solution.
The reagent that is used to test for starch is a mixture of iodine and potassium iodide in water, or an Iodine - KI reagent. If the reagent turns blue-black in color, then starch is present.
Biuret reagent is used to test for protein in urine. It is a common test that students in biology class perform. Urine is added to a test tube, followed by approximately the same amount of Biuret reagent. If the solution turns lavender this means that there are proteins present in the urine.

Argenmetric process
Nitric acid
Pyrrole-2-aldehyde does not respond to Tollens reagent because it is not a reducing sugar. Tollens reagent (silver nitrate) is used to test for the presence of aldehyde groups, which are commonly found in reducing sugars. Reducing sugars contain aldehyde groups and are capable of donating electrons to Tollens reagent, forming a silver mirror on the test tube wall. Pyrrole-2-aldehyde does not contain aldehyde groups, and therefore is not a reducing sugar. As a result, it does not react with Tollens reagent.
