Abstract - A quick and specific determination of the rate of lactose hydrolysis by high performance liquid chromatography using an internal standard
High performance liquid chromatography enables a quick determination of the rate of lactose hydrolysis.
Only ten (10) minutes are necessary to analyse a pure lactose hydrolysate or a hydrolysate of lactose from deproteinated whey and twenty (20) minutes for a hydrolysate of lactose from non deproteinated whey.
Glucose and galactose are not separated and are determined together.
The use of raffinose as internal standard results in an accuracy similar to the one obtained through gas liquid chromatography.
This selective and quick method can be used by any analysis laboratory and is especially suited to industrial controls
