Lactose (CAS No. 63-42-3)

Lactose, commonly known as milk sugar, is a naturally occurring dairy-based carbohydrate widely used as a pharmaceutical excipient, food additive, and nutritional sweetener. At Davar ChemTech, we supply high-quality Lactose powder in both pharmaceutical grade and food grade forms. Sourced and processed under strict quality controls, our Lactose ensures purity, consistency, and superior performance in industrial and laboratory applications.

What is Lactose?

Lactose (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) is a disaccharide composed of glucose and galactose, derived primarily from milk and whey. It appears as a white, crystalline or powdered solid with a mildly sweet taste.

Lactose is classified into two major forms:

• Lactose Monohydrate – commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry as a filler or binder.
• Anhydrous Lactose – used where low moisture content is essential, particularly in dry powder formulations.

At Davar ChemTech, we offer both Lactose Monohydrate and Anhydrous Lactose suitable for various industrial applications including food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and laboratory testing.

Applications and Uses

Our Lactose serves as a key ingredient in multiple industries due to its purity, stability, and functionality.

1. Pharmaceutical Industry

Lactose is one of the most widely used pharmaceutical excipients, serving as a filler, diluent, and binder in tablet and capsule formulations. Its flowability and compressibility make it ideal for direct compression and granulation.

• Commonly used in antibiotics, vitamins, and coated tablets.
• Compatible with most active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Available in both Lactose Monohydrate and Anhydrous forms for specific applications.

2. Food and Beverage Industry

Used as a food additive ingredient and nutritional sweetener, Lactose enhances texture, taste, and browning in baked goods and confectioneries.

• Improves flavor and texture in chocolates, milk powders, and infant formulas.
• Acts as a stabilizer in dairy and processed foods.
• Provides a mild sweetness with low hygroscopicity, ideal for dry mixes.

3. Chemical and Laboratory Use

In the Indian chemical industry, Lactose functions as a laboratory-grade compound and chemical intermediate in research and synthesis. Its controlled solubility and stability make it suitable for analytical and biochemical studies.

4. Nutritional Applications

Because of its natural source and digestibility, Lactose is used as a nutritional carbohydrate in dietary supplements and sports nutrition formulations.
