This chapter discusses the diversity in structure and properties that results when multiple monosaccharides (Chapter 2) are linked together to form oligosaccharides and polysaccharides (the latter comprising much of the biomass on the planet). Some examples of the more complex polymeric assemblies that occur in nature are presented, and how these remarkable structures are generated is discussed.
