Lactose 200 mesh

About Lactose 200 mesh

Lactose 200 mesh is a fine, white, crystalline milled powder monohydrate derived from whey, widely used in pharmaceutical and food applications. It has a particle size where nearly all particles pass through a 200-mesh sieve, offering excellent compaction, flowability, and blending properties, making it ideal for tablet manufacturing and direct compression. Key Characteristics and Application- Pharmaceutical Applications: Used extensively as a filler, binder, and carrier for active ingredients in tablets, capsules, and sachets (wet/dry granulation) due to its high purity and compaction characteristics. Food and Beverage: Utilized as a stabilizer, sweetener, and filler in nutritional supplements, infant formula, bakery items, soups, and confectionery. Physical Properties: White to cream color, odorless, slightly sweet taste, and soluble in water. Lactose 200 mesh is highly valued for its consistency in particle size, providing uniform mixing and rapid dissolution in pharmaceutical formulations.
