Abstract
By bringing lactose into contact with octanol in the presence of β-galactosidase and almond meal with a β-glucosidase activity, it is possible to simultaneously synthesize the octylglycosides corresponding to the two hexoses of the disaccharide. The reaction is optimized using an experimental plan.
