About

It is the most abundant organic compound on Earth and acts as a major source of dietary fiber for humans. Cellulose molecules are composed of glucose units joined together through beta-1,4-linkages, forming long chains that intertwine to create a strong and rigid structure. Due to its high tensile strength and resistance to degradation, cellulose has various applications, including as a raw material for paper, textiles, and biofuels production. It is also used as an additive in food and pharmaceutical industries.
