Popis: Lactose, glucose and galactose contents in milk and fermented milk products and their lactose-free alternatives, were determined. Storage of products up to the best-before dates had no effect on carbohydrate composition. Total galactose content in yoghurt, i.e., free galactose plus the galactose moiety of lactose, was 2.3–2.4 g 100 g −1 (94–95% of that in milk), whereas that in Swedish soured milk and kefir was 1.9–2.0 g 100 g −1 (75–79% of that in milk). Lactose levels in lactose-free milk and fermented milk products were below or close to detection limits for all products. Only small differences in total galactose content existed for the lactose-free alternatives of milk, yoghurt and filmjolk, all with average total galactose contents of 1.3–1.4 g 100 g −1 (55–60% of that in milk). In contrast, lactose-free kefir had the same galactose content as milk, 2.4 g 100 g −1 .
