Lactose levels in Milk

Post by deleted-567361 »

Hey there,
For my Science fair this year I would like to measure the lactose levels in different Types of milk (e.g.low fat milk, full fat milk ). How do i measure lactose levels? Is it achievable for me to do it without needing lots of expensive equipment?
Thanks, Zoe :D
