title: Viscosity and density of lactulose solutions.
abstract: The density and viscosity of solutions of lactulose and solutions of lactulose and boric acid were determined using calibrated viscometers and a nominal 10-ml pycnometer, respectively. These data were necessary for the development of the recovery section of a continuous pilot plant process to produce lactulose, a valuable pharmaceutical, from lactose.
