Lactose
- Molecular classification
- Disaccharide, Carbohydrate
01
Overview
Lactose is a disaccharide sugar found in milk. It is composed of glucose and galactose. Lactose serves as a primary carbohydrate source for newborn mammals and is digested by the enzyme lactase. Lactose intolerance arises from lactase deficiency.
