D-Galactose is a monosaccharide sugar that is naturally found in dairy products and some fruits. It is a C4 epimer of glucose, meaning it differs from glucose only in the orientation of the hydroxyl group at the fourth carbon. D-Galactose is commonly used in the food industry as a sweetener and flavor enhancer.
Here is a chart of the properties of D-Galactose:

Product Description:
Galactose is a monosaccharide. It contains six carbons and an aldehyde group and is classified as an aldose and a hexose.Both the D and L forms are found in nature. D-Galactose is commonly found in milk as part of the disaccharide lactose. L-Galactose is present in polysaccharides, such as agar.
Function:
(1).Galactose can be used as raw material to add in wine, fruit juice, bread, cake, cookies, candy and other foods;
(2).Galactose can be used as food additives, not only improve the color, fragrance and taste, but improve the nutritional value of food;
(3). Galactose can be used as raw material to reprocess, the specific products contain medicinal ingredients, through the biochemical pathway.
