TL;DR: It is concluded that at hatch, poults should have the capacity to digest disaccharides but not oligopeptides, due to increased expression of sucrase-isomaltase but decreased expression of aminopeptidases and absorb monosaccharide and small peptides due to high expression of sodium-glucose cotransporter-4 and peptide transporter-1.
