Production and physiological action of the disaccharide lactulose
2010-11-01
Abstract excerpt
The disaccharide lactulose is an artificial sugar with a significant impact on human digestion. It can be generated by either alkaline isomerization of lactose via the Lobry de Bruyn - Alberda van Ekenstein rearrangement or by enzyme-catalyzed synthesis. Based on the first reaction, different process schemes for the preparation of lactulose have been developed. Maximum yield of lactulose relative to initial lactos...
