General Description

• Beta-D-Lactose is a disaccharide composed of galactose and glucose monomers

• In beta-D-Lactose, the orientation of the glycosidic linkages are primarily in beta form

Applications

• Beta-D-Lactose is useful for laboratory research on sugar metabolism in microbes and other organisms

• Beta-D-Lactose has been used in some laboratory studies as a carrier for inhalants because of its ability to form spherical agglomerates

RUO – Research Use Only
