Lactose monohydrate Market Research Report | Trends, Opportunities and Forecast up to 2023

Lactose monohydrate is an organic compound with the chemical formula C12H22O11. It is crystalline form of milk powder. It is employed as an pharmaceutical filler for the production of capsules and tablets. Lactose monohydrate is also known as milk sugar in the industry as it is a disaccharide sugar obtained from galactose and glucose found in milk. Lactose monohydrate appears as a white solid powder or pale yellow crystalline solid with a specific odor identical to milk. Lactose monohydrate is soluble in water. It is synthesized industrially through a two step process. First step involves crystallization of lactose solution by cooling to form crystals. Second step involves segregation of lactose crystals by centrifugation followed by drying. Lactose monohydrate has been generally recognized as safe (GRAS) for use in controlled quantities as an additive in edible products.

Lactose monohydrate finds application in a wide array of foods, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and animal feed. Lactose monohydrate has been found to have a bland flavor and is utilized as a stabilizer for formulations. It has a longer shelf-life and is cheaper than real milk. Lactose monohydrate is primarily used as an additive in the formulation of several pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, foods and beverages. It is often used in tablets capsules, ready-mix infant formulas, chocolates, biscuits, ready-to-make foods, candies, ice-cream and bread and bakery products to enhance aroma and flavor. Lactose monohydrate is used in pharmaceuticals and animal feed as a filler because of its physical and chemical stability. Additionally, Lactose monohydrate is easy to mix with other ingredients and does not absorb water. Cheaper prices and longer shelf-life are the key benefits of using Lactose monohydrate. It is the most commonly available and most widely utilized milk sugar because of its stabilizing effect and easy solubility with water.
