Determination of β-Galactooligosaccharides by Liquid Chromatography
International Journal of Analytical Chemistry, 2014 Beta-galactooligosaccharides (GOS) are oligosaccharides normally produced industrially by transgalactosylation of lactose. They are also present naturally in the milk of many animals including humans and cows. GOS are thought to be good for health, being
