Products classified under HTS 1702.19.00.00
Pharmaceutical Grade Lactose Monohydrate
Finely milled lactose monohydrate powder used as a filler and diluent in tablet manufacturing for pharmaceuticals. It falls under HTS 1702.19.00.00 as chemically pure lactose in solid form, distinct from food-grade or flavored variants. This classification applies to other lactose products beyond milk sugar or specific syrups.
Food-Grade Lactose Powder
Spray-dried lactose powder derived from whey, used in infant formula, bakery goods, and confectionery as a sweetener and bulking agent. Classified under HTS 1702.19.00.00 as other lactose in solid form without added flavors or colors. It meets criteria for chemically pure sugars in chapter 17.
Chemically Pure Dextrose Monohydrate
High-purity dextrose (glucose) monohydrate crystals produced via enzymatic hydrolysis, used in IV solutions and biopharma. HTS 1702.19.00.00 covers other sugars like chemically pure glucose in solid form, excluding flavored syrups. This ensures separation from invert sugar or confectionery uses.
Pharmaceutical Lactose Spray-Dried Powder
Spray-dried anhydrous lactose for direct compression in tablet production, ensuring flowability and compressibility. Falls under HTS 1702.19.00.00 as other solid lactose without flavoring, per chapter notes excluding prepared foods. Ideal for high-volume pharma manufacturing.
Pure Maltose Powder
Chemically pure maltose (malt sugar) in crystalline powder form from starch hydrolysis, used in nutritional supplements and brewing adjuncts. HTS 1702.19.00.00 includes other sugars like maltose in solid form, without added flavors per subheading exclusions. Distinguished from invert or cane sugars.
Fructose Crystals Anhydrous
Anhydrous D-fructose crystals from corn wet milling, used in low-glycemic sweeteners and pharma. Covered by HTS 1702.19.00.00 as chemically pure fructose in solid form, not syrups or flavored products. Excludes cane-derived under quota scrutiny.
Artificial Honey Substitute Powder
Dried glucose-fructose blend mimicking honey composition, used in baking without natural honey. HTS 1702.19.00.00 includes artificial honey in solid form, whether mixed or pure, per heading scope excluding syrups. Avoids floral source classification issues.
Galacto-Oligosaccharide Lactose Powder
Prebiotic GOS powder from lactose enzymatic conversion, used in infant nutrition for gut health. Still classifies under HTS 1702.19.00.00 as modified lactose sugar in solid form, not exceeding non-sugar solids limit of heading 1703. Meets purity for other sugars.
Veterinary Dextrose Powder
Sterile dextrose powder for animal electrolyte mixes and oral rehydration. HTS 1702.19.00.00 for chemically pure glucose solids, suitable for vet pharma excluding human food preps. Bulk form avoids retail quotas.
Bulk Lactose for Confectionery
Coarse lactose crystals for hard candy production, providing structure without sweetness dominance. Under HTS 1702.19.00.00 as other solid lactose, bulk industrial form per US notes excluding retail packs. High purity avoids syrup headings.
