About this study
The purpose of this study is to prospectively collect a microscopic biopsy from individuals who have a clinical suspicion of a possible gastrointestinal disaccharidase deficiency, and to develop and validate clinical enzymatic assays for intestinal disaccharidase lactase, palatinase, sucrase, maltase, or glucoamylase (Disaccharidase Enzyme Panel) in order to detect deficiencies in these enzymes, thereby benefiting the diagnosis of gastrointestinal disorders at Mayo Clinic.
