It is a complex carbohydrate with a linear chain of tens to hundreds to several thousand D-glucose units. It is the principal structural component of plant and algal cell walls.
- Cellulose | Definition, Uses, & Facts | BritannicaCellulose is a complex carbohydrate consisting of 3,000 or more glucose units. It is the basic structural component of plant cell walls, comprising about 33 percent of all vegetable matter, and is the most abundant of all naturally occurring compounds.
- Cellulose Definition and Examples - Biology Online DictionaryCellulose is a structural component of the primary cell wall of vascular plants (as well as of many algae and oomycetes). Cellulose is the most abundant natural polysaccharide followed by chitin. Cellulose resembles chitin in being a polysaccharide with monomers linked to each other by β (1→4) glycosidic bond.
- Cellulose (C6H10O5)n - Structure, Molecular Mass, Properties, Uses - BYJU'SCellulose is a complex carbohydrate consisting of oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen. It is chiral, tasteless and has no odour. A French chemist by name Anselme Payen was the first to discover cellulose in the year 1838. This organic compound is water-soluble and biodegradable.
- Cellulose - New World EncyclopediaCellulose (C 6 H 10 O 5) n is a long-chain polymeric polysaccharide carbohydrate of beta-glucose, and is by far the most abundant organic (carbon -containing) compound on Earth. Cellulose forms the primary structural component of green plants.
