Popis: The effect of different patterns of starvation (acute and intermittent) on the in vivo intestinal absorption of glucose and tryptophan during the first days of Gallus domesticus chicks life was measured. Both acute and intermittent starvation increase duodenal absorption of glucose and jejunal absorption of tryptophan. Intermittent starvation tends to reduce the effect of age which normally decreases intestinal uptake of nutrients. This effect is clearer for glucose absorption than for tryptophan absorption.
