Description

White powder Lactose occurs as white to off-white crystalline particles or powder. It is odorless and slightly sweet-tasting. Spray-dried directcompression grades of lactose are generally composed of 80–90% specially prepared pure a-lactose monohydrate along with 10–20% of amorphous lactose.

α-Lactose monohydrate Use and Manufacturing

The characteristics of nitrolactose separation in GLC: a disaccharide separated from the milk of mammals. About 4%-5% in cow~"s milk and about 6.7% in human milk. Acidic hydrolysis yields equal molecules of D-glucose and D-galactose. It is a reducing sugar that can reduce the Fehling solution. Crystallization in normal temperature aqueous solution yields α-lactose, and crystallization above 93°C yields β-lactose. Alpha lactose is common lactose. It has a weak sweet taste, usually with a molecule of crystal water. It is a monoclinic crystal. At 120°C, the crystal water is lost and heated rapidly. The aqueous solution has a spin phenomenon, [a]20D-92.6°→+83.5°(10 minutes)→+69°(50 minutes)→+52.3°(22 hours). β-lactose is slightly sweeter than α-lactose. White crystals. Melting point 252℃. The aqueous solution also has a phenomenon of spin. [α]25D +34° (3 minutes) → +39° (6 minutes) → +46° (1 hour) → 52.3° (22 hours). β-lactose can be transformed into α-lactose after absorbing water at normal temperature, and the latter becomes β-lactose when heated to above 93℃. The xylene and xylene isomers are components of the liquid-solid phase.
