I am building kitchen cabinet from birch plywood. Should I finish
cabinet case with urethane or some other protective finish for
durability? I was advised once to coat panels with ARM-N-SEAL.

That would be General Finishes Arm-R-Seal. I think that was good
advice. It is a wipe on polyurethane that will be easy to apply and
give a resistant and durable finish. You may want to start the process
with the related product Seal-a-Cell. See www.generalfinishes.com. You
can get them at most woodworking stores, but you won't find them at many
hardware stores.

ABSOLUTELY use a finish.

General Finishes ARM-"R"-Seal would be a wise choice. 2 coats minimum.
