Lactose
Lactose, or milk sugar, is a sugar that forms a normal part of the human diet, and is primarily found in milk and whey. Based on its chemical composition, this is the disaccharide formula C12H22O11 that is formed from the monosaccharides glucose and galactose. In the digestive tract, lactose is broken down by the lactase enzyme, and the resulting monosaccharides are then broken down further in the glycolysis process. Due to its mild flavour, lactose is not only used in the food industry, but also in the pharmaceutical industry as a carrier for medicines.
