RESUMO

Small intestinal lactase, sucrase and alkaline phosphatase activities were measured in histologically normal peroral intestinal biopsies from 477 individuals. Enzyme activities varied with age, sex, site of biopsy, and were lowest in post-weaning children and highest in young adults. Lactase activity does not decrease with advancing age.
