Figures 2 and 3 show the chromatograms of the prepared mozzarella and ricotta cheese, respectively. Only lactose was detected in
each of these cheeses. Adjusting for the 10-fold sample dilution during sample preparation, both cheeses showed significant
amounts of lactose. Though the diluted concentration of 0.275% for ricotta cheese was slightly above the 0.25% high calibration
level, this wasn't considered significant. Subsequently, this could easily be accommodated by using an additional calibration level.

Conclusion
Figure 4 shows the chromatogram of the prepared low-lactose The results demonstrated the effective use of this HPLC method
milk sample. All three sugar analytes were detected. Lactose for the isocratic separation of lactose, glucose and galactose and
was found at 0.074%. This concentration level was not the quantitative analysis of lactose in milk and cheeses, using RI
surprising, considering that this particular milk was of the easily- detection. The method allowed for lactose quantitation down
digestible variety, expected to contain <0.1% lactose. Though to 0.005% (50 ppm) and the calibration range encompassed the
significant amounts of glucose and galactose were detected, as highest analyte concentration typically found in such samples. If
they were not the focus of this work, they were not quantitated. required, additional sensitivity may be obtained by increasing the
injection volume, though it is recommended not to go beyond
50 l, taking care not to overload the column.
