Abstract

A glycosan is a general term for a macromolecular substance which is hydrolyzed to yield almost exclusively sugars. When the hydrolysis yields only one component sugar the glycosan is designated a homoglycosan, but when two or more component sugars are formed the substance is called a heteroglycosan.
