Difference between Glucan and Glucose

Glucan vs. Glucose

A glucan molecule is a polysaccharide of D-glucose monomers, linked by glycosidic bonds. Glucose is a simple sugar with the molecular formula C6H12O6.

Similarities between Glucan and Glucose

Glucan and Glucose have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Carbohydrate, Cellulose, Glucan, Glycogen, Polysaccharide, Starch.

Carbohydrate

A carbohydrate is a biomolecule consisting of carbon (C), hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1 (as in water); in other words, with the empirical formula (where m may be different from n).
