Lactose is also called milk sugar. It is a compound which is found in the mammal milk of animals such as cows, goats as well as humans. The body needs the natural enzyme lactase to break down the lactose found in whey, a byproduct of the synthesis of casein and cheese.
It has a sweet flavour and is a non-hygroscopic solid in nature. It is odourless, white in colour, and highly soluble in water. It is a disaccharide that, upon hydrolysis, yields the saccharides such as glucose and galactose.
The Molecular weight and density of lactose are 342.297 g/mol and 1.525 g/cm3 respectively. The Melting point of lactose is 202.8 °C, and its flash point of 357.8 °C.
The largest lactose-producer country is India, and it is followed by Brazil, Pakistan, China, and the United States of America.

Industrial Uses Impacting Lactose Price Trend:
The use of the product in the culinary and medicinal sectors is driving the demand for lactose. It is employed in the food business to preserve the crystalline texture of the sugar without making the food overly sweet.
It also has a variety of low-volume uses, such as increasing food flavours, dilution of flavours, free-flowing or agglomerating agents, pigments, or enzymes, as well as improving the functionality of shortenings, all of which contribute to the market’s expansion.
Along with its application in confections, it is useful in the absorption of food colours and flavours. Moreover, lactose serves as the main drug carrier in the pharmaceutical industry since it is secure, unsweet, and well-refined, producing high-quality tablets that enhance the industry’s growth.
The product is also used as a nutrient in the preparation of modified milk, infants food and in the fermentation of baked goods to make cheese, yoghurt, and sour milk, and in analytical chemistry as a chromatographic adsorbent. These additional uses of the product are driving up industrial demand.
