Why do we say that the basic solution containing copper sulfate is an indicator solution for protein?

We know that copper sulfate can be used in an experiment to test whether or not a protein is at hand, etc. Hope this helps!

Copper sulfate is an indicator solution for proteins due to the Biuret test, which detects proteins through a color change when copper ions bind with peptide bonds. In an alkaline solution, the presence of proteins results in a violet color. The intensity of the color relates to the concentration of proteins present in the solution.
