Starch, cellulose, and glycogen ("animal starch") are common glucose polymers (polysaccharides).

In animals, the structurally-similar glucose polymer is the more densely-branched glycogen, sometimes called 'animal starch'.

The classic carb-loading meal is pasta, whose caloric content is primarily due to starch, a glucose polymer.

In all glucose polymers, from the native starch to glucose syrup, the molecular chain begins with a reducing sugar, containing a free aldehyde.

Levoglucosan can be utilized in the synthesis of chiral polymers such as unhydrolysable glucose polymers.

Pleuran belongs to a group of glucose polymers commonly called beta-glucans demonstrating biological response modifier properties.

Most carbohydrate and protein drinks contain glucose polymers, he explained, which provide a steady release of glucose into the bloodstream, much like a time-release cold capsule.

In general, the competing ligand in the case of glucose is dextran, a long glucose polymer attached to the scaffolding or to the enzyme.

In animals, the structurally similar glucose polymer is the more densely branched glycogen, sometimes called 'animal starch'.

Starches are glucose polymers in which glucopyranose units are bonded by alpha-linkages.
