Batch synthesis of fructosyl-galacto-oligosaccharides from lactulose was performed with commercial β-galactosidase preparations from Aspergillus oryzae, Kluyveromyces lactis and Bacillus circulans. The enzyme from A. oryzae produced the highest yield and specific productivity of synthesis, being selected for further studies. Optimization
