Compare with oligosaccharide and monosaccharide. A carbohydrate consisting of a large number of linked monosaccharide units. Examples of polysaccharides are cellulose and starch.
Polysaccharides are polymeric carbohydrate molecules composed of long chains of monosaccharide units bound together by glycosidic linkages and on hydrolysis give the constituent monosaccharides or oligosaccharides. They range in structure from linear to highly branched. Examples include storage polysaccharides such as starch and glycogen, and stru...

A large carbohydrate molecule. It contains many small sugar molecules that are joined chemically. Also called glycan.
Any of a group of polymers made from simple sugar molecules, or monosaccharides, linked by glycosidic bonds. Polysaccharides are insoluble and may serve as a store of energy, as in the case of starch and glycogen, or as a structural component, as in the case of cellulose which is found in the cell w...

Long-chain carbohydrate made up of hundreds or thousands of linked simple sugars (monosaccharides) such as glucose and closely related molecules. The polysaccharides are natural polymers. They either act as energy-rich food stores in plants (starch) and animals (glycogen), or have structural ...
