These studies examined the production of oligosaccharides by ${\beta}-galactosidase$originated from Aspergillus oryzae and Kluyveromyces fragilis mixed. In addition, heat resistance and acid stability of transgalactosylated oligosaccharides were measured. When ${\beta}-galactosidase$ from A. oryzae, K. fragilis and mixed ${\beta}-galactosidase$ were added to 30%(w/v) lactose solution, maximum production of transgalactosylated oligosaccharides were 26.9%, 37.05 and 27.2%, respectively. The ratios of disacchride, trisacchride and tetrasaccharide in transgalactosylated oligosaccharides were 20.5 : 5.4 : 0.6, 20.4 : 10.5 : 4.2 and 21.0 : 4.1 : 1.9, respectively. Nine different oligosaccharides were recovered with 30% and 40% ethanol fractions. When the 30% ethanol fraction was treated at $150^{\circ}C$ for 10 min more than 90% of oligosaccharides remained stable. More than 90% of the oligosaccharides were stable at $130^{\circ}C$ for 3 min with pH 3.0, whereas there of Kluyveromyces was more than 90% with pH 3.5.
