The reagent is made by dissolving metallic mercury in nitric acid and diluting with water. In the test, the phenol group in the side chain of tyrosine gets nitrated, and that product then complexes with Hg(I) or Hg(II) ions to give red coloration or precipitate. Millon's test is not specific for proteins; it also gives a positive test for other compounds containing the phenol functional group. Therefore, the biuret test or the ninhydrin reaction are used along with it to confirm the presence of proteins.
