Lactase is the name of the enzyme that breaks down lactose (milk sugar) into its components galactose (mucus sugar) and glucose (grape sugar). Without this chemical reaction, the components of lactose cannot be absorbed through the mucous membrane of the small intestine. In humans, the enzyme is normally produced in the small intestine as early as childhood, and in most people in Europe then also in adulthood. A lack of lactase can have several causes (see lactose intolerance) and leads to digestive problems in 2/3 of these people when milk sugar is ingested.
Use LACTASE, lactase enzyme
Commercially produced lactase is obtained from yeast fungi such as Kluyveromyces fragilis. The enzyme obtained in this way is offered in the form of capsules so that people suffering from lactose intolerance can consume dairy products.
Quantities are expressed in FCC units.
1000 FCC correspond to 70 milligrams of lactase and can break down 5 grams of milk sugar.
